	If I'm correct, they're recorded as what's known as Block Time (the time you depart the gate to the time you arrive to the gate).

	Yes. There is Block Time and Block Hour: Block Time - Period from initial movement of an aircraft under its own power until parking at the destination. Block Hour Time from the moment the aircraft door closes at departure of a revenue flight until the moment the aircraft door opens at the arrival gate following its landing. Block hours are the industry standard measure of aircraft utilization
