Could that be Campbell's Field? Wild guess, and I've never been there--but the terrain looks familiar, SW of Guntersville Lake. A fellow Searey pilot told me about it.

DING DING DING! Cambell's Field is correct. Tell him what he's won, Johnny!

That's our main Sunday Morning breakfast destination.

As for getting flight trails off the iPhone, I think it takes a paid Apple app or hacking in order to get to YOUR data. That's another reason why I don't like crApple products.

I just checked with PhoneView (an app I've had for several years): There appears to be no user-accessible iFly data on the iPhone, other than the app, itself. (Some apps have it, and some don't.) So in other words, there seems to be no way to get at the flight trails files from outside the iFly app. This is proably an Adventure Pilot decision.

Re: Flight Trails

With the iFly app on apple, use the sync option with the flight log included.

Open your android or windows iFly app. Go to sync, and download the flight log from the iPad.

You can now access the files using android or windows. Its a pain, but the only way to do it right now.

Re: Flight Trails

Thanks! I'd never noticed that sync option. But I still don't see how to extract the trail data and use it on another device or program--GoogleEarth, for example.
