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.

Average Speed around course is measured from Start to Finish points.

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

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

Reached my 37km declared goal… Shame I'd deleted the route from my instrument before taking off on the assumption I wasn't going to get away from the hill. Doh! Only cost me about 3 points in the end though.

1. Best flight from a Pennine site in 2016 winter season.

2. Fastest XC flight I've ever done - averaged over 29km/h.

3. Last climb took over 15 minutes to climb 1400 feet - but I covered five and a half kilometres while circling due to thermal drift. Went on final glide because I was at the height of the imminent airspace ceiling - just 3500 feet, well short of cloudbase.

4. The noticeable rightward bend in the track before Barnoldswick was because of shading - was following the edge of cloud. First flight where I've mostly flown clouds rather than ground sources.
