Retrieving data from a 396

It only shows my last 30-40 flights, 25 of those were 15 minute rounds at our recent fly in. I'm trying to catch my log book up and need to go back farther than it shows, any tips?

Heck, That's easy........

Just crash the plane and the NTSB will ship the unit back to their lab for forensic reconstruction... Your wife will eventually get the complete details.. :o :o ...

Retrieving data from a 396

I don't know how to help retrieve info from further back, but this might help you keep from having this problem again. I take pictures with my iPhone of the "flights" screen occasionally (often enough to stay ahead of the deletion) to have record of the flights. Then whenever I get ready to catch up the log book I pull out my phone, view photos, and copy it down.

Glad to know I'm not the only one that gets behind.

Hope this helps.

Re: Retrieving data from a 396

You can try to download your track into a GARMIN map program or Google earth. You can see where you have been, and estimate the times from there. I do that a lot. Many times the GPS logs the wrong strips when landing at unmarked strips so I look at the track just to see where I have been. I think the track goes back further than the flight log
