Axel,
In your example, you're wanting to populate a DateTime field in a model,
but you want to allow the user to enter a string which would be invalid
for the field.
One way to do this is to add an additional field to your form.
Example, given your 'takeoff' field:
1. Add a charfield named takeoff_str in your form definition.
2. Add a method named clean_takeoff_str to your form definition.
In this function, check to ensure that the string entered is a
valid
HHMM value, if not raise a forms.ValidationError.
Then, create a valid datetime from the input, and set
self.cleaned_data['takeoff'] equal to this value.
