A couple of minor points arose from a trip from Shoreham to Thruxton & back today. (Using the latest Beta release "SkyDemon 2 Preview", 17th Jan 2011)

Would it be possible to have the "Flight Statistics" info saved to be reviewed after the flight?
The present system produces useful flight times etc. but all is lost once the program is shut down.
Would be great to have (perhaps, a la Garmin) the record of the last ten flights saved.

The second (very minor point) is that scrolling ahead to check out an airport's data, can in certain circumstances, have a frequency obscured by the aircrafts position arrow.
This happened when cross checking Popham's frequency whilst the aircraft was to the South East. Large arrow, bottom right of screen, just where the frequency was being shown. (& yes, we did have a map & Pooleys as well Tongue)
No doubt this could be overcome by changing to track up? but is there another way round it?

Every thing else seems to be working very well & the program is improving with every release.

Regards from a SkyDemon fan,

Max.

Those statistics in the Mobile software are available only after you have landed, I believe. Regardless, the flight log is saved into your log library and should be available in the Analysis -> Open Flight Log From Library window.

Note that flight logs are not created while in simulator mode.

Maybe I am just being a total biff Tim, but when looking at the data on my mobile device I see the take-off and landing times. When looking at the analysis on my netbook/laptop/PC I can see the flight duration and distance (as well as the elapsed time at any given point on the trace) but can not find the take-off and landing times. I think these are the 2 most important bits of info about the flight for logging and checking what time you were at a particular point.



If I am being a biff can you please tell me where to look? If I am not, can you please add these times in the analysis display?



Thanks,
