Notes

This map gives an overview of the flight, using the turnpoints to plot the track.

Its small scale has some drawbacks - short flights and loop flights may appear as a single blob, and flights along the coast may appear out at sea.

Use the XC Player for a detailed map and flight track.

Notes

Climb and Speed averaged over 6 second intervals.

These values may be lower than those shown by a flight instrument, which has access to continuous raw data.

Red values indicate suspect data, because the tracklog contains invalid points.

Average Speed around course is measured from Takeoff to Landing.

Track Length is the cumulative distance between track points from Takeoff to Landing.

You can change the default units displayed - see the Options page.

A Storyboard is an account of a flight that uses tracklog positions as a framework.

Stories are anchored to points along the track so they can be viewed in the XC Player to show the pilot's position in addition to the narrative.
