List by airfield

  • Type ICAO identifier or name in search box and press 'Show'

List by aircraft

  • Type aircraft callsign in search box and press 'Show'

Data

  • Altitude (AGL): Current altitude above takeoff location, or maximum altitude after landing. Meters or feet. An arrow indicates climb/descent for aircraft currently in flight.
  • Climb rate (CLIMB): Average climb from takeoff to current or maximum altitude. Useful for tow planes. Meters per second or feet per minute.
  • Runway direction (last subcolumn of TKOF/LDG): Degrees True Course/10

Information

  • The log generally goes back 7 to 28 days
  • Only aircraft registered on DDB are recorded

Troubleshooting

  • Check your station is active on one of the various station range pages, e.g. this one.
  • Ensure FLARMs are switched ON before takeoff.
  • Check your FLARM's range on the live range analyser.
  • Does your OGN receiver have correct time configured (ntp)? TKOF and LDG times are taken from the timestamp of your OGN receiver. It may reject data if it deems the clock is too far off.
  • Does your OGN receiver have the correct position configured? This is paramount for the range analyser.
  • Check that aircraft are consistently visible on the KTrax tracking site on the ground and in the circuit.
  • Check the 'Relay' and 'Updated' fields (click on the marker). While the glider is on the ground, 'Relay' should be your OGN station (unless your field has good coverage by other stations). 'Updated' time shouldn't go over ca. 20 seconds on ground, less when in the air.
  • Does your OGN antenna have any 'blind spots' on the field/circuit? If necessary, make some test flights to evaluate.
Known issues
  • Runway direction is based on true course, may be off by 10-20 degrees from magnetic
  • The 'Back' button doesn't work on some browsers
