Until they start tracking the fifth OOOI, I'd say you have no way to determine when the aircraft has moved under its own power so logging block time would be appropriate.

Once they start tracking the fifth OOOI, I'd say that you might be obligated to only log from forward movement, as that seems to also match the FAR Part 1 definition.

Seems like that COULD slow guys logging time in NYC towards the upgrade (assuming people were to actually adjust their flight time logging to comply with that definition)
