Default Flight Analysis

Hi Pilots,
I usually do analysis on my flights and those of other pilots I flew with to try understand what I did right or wrong and what I can learn from pilots better than me. A recent flight on OLC showed that I circled 15.5% of the time at an average of 3.3m/s (about 6.4 kts). Opening the .igc file in SeeYou it showed 20% and an average 4.9 kts. Can any of you shed light on how these differences occurred?
Thanks, Bob


You can set "marker 1" and "marker 2" in SeeYou (right click...), then look at the "selection" tab under stats to see the stats for that specific segment. Typically, one might do this for the start/finish of a task to cut out the pre-start meandering and post finish pattern/landing.
