Hi Greg,

Are you certain that works?


Yep, I upload all flights for a friend who has an old CAI logger. Works
perfectly.


I wouldn't think it would. I thought the
.igc file was only attached when SeeYou was used to upload to the OLC.

It is my understanding that the best solution is to open the .cai file
in either SeeYou or StrePla and then use them to upload directly to the
OLC from within SeeYou or StrePla. They automatically create and attach
a (non-secure) .igc file to the secure .cai file before uploading to the
OLC.


I tried that a few years ago. I may be misremembering, but I thought it
didn't work.

Any suggestions?

Open the CAI file in SeeYou, then save it as an IGC file. Then use OLC
Direct Claim to upload the saved IGC file.
