mmm... where did I read something similar before? ;)

I'm working also in an application where I need to use TAI (it seems
that internal time distribution inside ESA Sentinel Satellites is TAI..
or TAPF :) ). But I suppose that GPS time - 19 sec will be precise
enough for the application.
Regards,
Javier

If you take the leap
seconds out of UTC (in fact UTC(GPS), steered close to UTC(USNO)), you will
_not_ get TAI, just UTC(GPS)-34s...!
You will get TAPF = Temps Atomique Pedant-Free! TAPF is identical with
TAI in every respect except for not having the assinine prohibition
against its use.
I love TAPF, it's my favourite time scale.
