Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
According to some LCAs I flew with, this will eventually be the policy. The OUT time will be de-coupled from the beacon and be generated when the main cabin doors are all closed and the brake is released. IN time will be the parking brake set and a main cabin door opened.

I think this is how other airlines do it, not that I know from personal experience.

Even easier. Disable the GPS in the FMS (it will stop automatically updating the ACARS and FMS time automatically), select DME/DME as primary, place the #3 VHF onto a non AIRINC freq. (so nothing is updated in RES/SABRE/PARS), modify the system time as required, follow company procedures, move off the gate and away from cameras, place #3 VHF back to the primary AIRINC freq. ( this will update RES/SABRE//PARS but you'll be away from the cameras and ACARS periodically go NO COM anyways) and finally enable that GPS receiver before you fly that RNAV departure.
