Did you know....?

If you set your device to log ADSB flights you can play your entire flight back when you return home.

I found it alarming that I could see so many targets that came close to me in my flight.

This is a great feature. Try it.

Robert:

To play back the flight:

MENU> ABOUT> CONNECTED DEVICES> Under Wireless Device Options go to the last page an select START ADSB PLAYBACK then select the ADSB file you want to see. A scree will come up ETER PLAYBACK SPEED. I use 20 just to speed up the playback. hit DONE. Then hit CLOSE.

The screen will show everything you saw on the original trip. 

Pretty slick.

Thanks Walter.  I tried, successfully, to do this on my 740b and it worked, but it was very, very jerky and slow to catch up.   So, I got the idea to copy the ADS-B bin file (Adsb_2020_02_25-11.29.bin, 2/25/2020 1:23 PM) from my 740b to my Windows, and replay it on my Windows instance of iFlyGPS.

The good news is that once I put the file where it belonged, the Windows instance saw it (and others I didn't know I had) and let me play it.

But.....  When I replayed the ADS-B file on the 740b, I saw targets and other ADS-B related info.  When I did the same on the Windows instance, I saw my aircraft and it's track, but none of the ADS-B targets showed up. 

In the image below, I've got, at the top, the screen of the 740b showing several ADS-B targets... the bottom part of the image is a capture from my Windows instance, at almost exactly the same point in the file, but it shows none of the ADS-B targets.  Am I missing a file?  I tried to get all the log files.  So what am I doing wrong?  How do I transfer all the info from the 740b to Windows???
