Title: building logs for a period of time and show the trails of the planes
Post by: eharvey on February 21, 2012, 08:56:00 PM
Is there a way to show the trails of the planes as they fly over an area?  This will be in the log and i can pull this up on a picture report/presentation?

Is there a support number to call?

thanks

You can set the trails for aircraft in the Preferences tab however the trails disappear as soon as the aircraft times out. I assume you want to show all the trails over a specific area of time which isn't possible in the RadarBox software.

I set my trails to 10000 and when you have the map saved by using F3 you can refer to it from the screenshots folder.

Hope that helps :)

If you want to build-up trails over many days/months, then use Overflight Logger.
See http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=4966.msg49795#msg49795

Strange, it works okay here.  Anyway, here's the post:

Don't know if this is what you're looking for, but using Overflight Logger (http://homepage.ntlworld.com/robinsonfizz/Alansworld/sbs-1/ofl/) you can plot your coverage at different altitudes.  Overflight Logger is a free download, and uses the port 30003 output from Radarbox.

Tarbat - it's the link to Overflight Logger that isn't working.

I did some "googling", but wasn't able to find a new, working source.

...perhaps I should make some back-up copies of this tool...
