When reprocessing a flight log for a flight that already exists in Flight Reader, the existing flight should be updated, ensuring only a single entry appears in the main Flight Reader window. However, due to a change introduced in Flight Reader version 1.7.1, flight logs processed by older versions may have a start date that differs by a few milliseconds compared to the same log processed in version 1.7.1. As a result, Flight Reader treats the reprocessed log as a new flight, causing duplicate entries in the flight list.
To resolve this issue:
-
Display All Flights
In the main Flight Reader window, set the “Flight Date” filter to “All Time” to display all flights sorted by date.
-
Identify and Select Duplicates
- Hold the Ctrl key, scroll through the flight list, and select the first flight in each duplicate pair.
- The first flight will always be the one with the incorrect start date (off by a few milliseconds).
-
Delete Duplicate Flights
Once all duplicate flights are selected, release the Ctrl key, right-click any selected flight, and choose “Delete Flight Logs” from the context menu.
This will remove the duplicate flights, leaving only the correctly reprocessed entries in the flight list.
