There are 6 fields per line, here's what I've managed to guess at so far: Field 1 - A timestamp (presumably milliseconds since the start of the log as per the comment in the first line) Field 2 - GPS co-ordinates Field 3 - ?? Field 4 - Speed (in knots?) Field 5 - Height in feet Field 6 - ?? Would appreciate some sort of indication that I'm on the right track if possible. Andy

It's XML and is pretty much self-explanatory. flightlog, not flightplan The flightlog file is CSV, and has a few fields that don't seem obvious. The first line contains a comment, with the start date in it. The first column of subsequent lines is presumably a time stamp since this start time, in milliseconds? Then it's GPS position. After that it's less obvious, but presumably ground speed and height are in there, and the last column seems to be vertical speed perhaps? Anyway, would be good to have them documented if possible.

Group: Forum Members Posts: 274, Visits: 2.5K	Hi, Is there any means of doing a 'mass' conversion of .flightlog files to .gpx format? Any plans to produce one? Failing that, any chance the format of the .flightlog file could be documented so that I could consider writing one myself? Cheers Andy
