I don't usually look closely at the OLC scores for flights but on a recent flight I was given a very short triangle that didn't make sense. When looking closely, I noticed that some legs were scored shorter than they should have been by several km. The triangle was scored at about 15 km rather...

Hello, I have a Colibri logger (3.01) that on two consecutive flights gave me faulty altitude logging (long periods of fixed altitude, and sudden spikes to 50.000 ft+) Even though the flight was on April 1st, I tink there is something wrong ;-) Also, it seems to be able to produce numerous...
