Downloading logs from a Garmin 695

Hi Team -

Firstly congratulations on creating such an amazing product. I've just started playing with it and it seems to do everything I need. I have a Garmin 695, which is now rather clunky compared to the latest offerings for VFR devices, and I placed a bet with myself that it would baulk at receiving a flight plan from SD. But no, it received it without complaint, and I'm a very happy soul.

However, when I tried to pull down logs from the Garmin, I found there seems to be no way of separating them into individual flights; I ended up with all my flights from the last year or so displayed on the map, all concatenated into one very long journey.

I like to keep these logs on the Garmin in case I need to refute an accusation of an incursion or something (never have, though), so I don't want to delete each one after every flight.

Is there any way I can do this?

 Regards

Thanks, Tim; that's rather what I expected.

It's not a killer complaint, as the supplied Garmin mapping tool for PCs will do what I want, and might even output a selective GPX file I could read into SD. Thing is, SD seems so good, I wouldn't want to fiddle around with anything else!

Will set about buying the full version today or tomorrow!
