Volkslogger Question

I got a copy of Ray's files and was able to open and view both the longer
flight and a shorter one obviously the aero retrieve.

I've flown with a Volkslogger for two seasons now and
only recently had two flights where I landed out and
got an aero-retrieve. While on the ground, I did not
cut the power to the Volkslogger.

Upon downloading the flight log, I found only the aero-retrieve
was logged and not the 'lawn-dart' flight that got
me to the place where I needed to be recovered from.
In both cases, there was plenty of memory available
because with a four second recording interval, the
memory is somewhat over eight hours. The recorder
was never on for that amount of time.

Assuming I didn't do anything stupid (big assumption)
like CLEAR MEMORY of the recorder while waiting on
the towplane, why did the recorder only give me the
aero-retrieve flight?

Thanks for any advice,

Thanks Harold.

There is NO problem with the Volkslogger.

I should have asked, 'how do I get Stre Ple (the OEM
version that came with the VL) to view both flights?
The two flights are contained within one igc file.'

Thanks to all who responded. Now, I won't have to
make multiple flights this weekend (weather permitting)
just to create flight logs. I can make multiple flights
because I can't fly worth a hoot. My flying skills
are just as good as my computer skills.
