What does it all mean?
It means the SH3 Gods Must Be Crazy. It seems that the developers created one time system for the sea and one for the sky. Hopefully I'm wrong and this is all just a terrible mistake.

I was wrong and that is a good thing, because now I understand the SH3 clocks.
When you start a mission or a campaign, SH3 remembers the starting time zone, lets call that Base Time Zone, or BTZ. The two clocks are then offset from the correct time by the BTZ.
The theory I originally developed was based by studying the sunrise and sunsets after loading single missions with the mission editor. I tested the theory by cruising to different time zones and was getting the wrong results. I went back to the drawing board and made some new observations.
