Wanna hear something funny? At one time the FAA had a quota hire woman in a very high position who suggested putting odometers on aircraft! True story.

At least we would know how far the aircraft taxied and the length of take-off before wheels up and the roll-out after touchdown! :)

Funny? Is the Odometer thing a joke? Where do I get the full story. My Airline Pilot Boyfriend would like to know.
