FF to .kml

[Let'sgoflying!]

I flew a complicated pattern today (5hrs) and now need to convert the breadcrumbs to something that can be viewed in GoogleEarth. Possible?

If you saved your breadcrumbs as a track log, you can download a KML from the web interface via http://plan.foreflight.com/tracklogs

How to save BCs as a TL?

 

[Let'sgoflying!]

I saved them as a tracklog.
They don’t show up on the website (although others of mine do)

You can export the KML from inside Foreflight, too -- when viewing the tracklog, tap the "export" icon (box with an upward arrow) in the top right. You'll be able to email it as an attachment, or send it directly to another app on the device.

(Disclaimer: I just tested this in FF 15.11.1, can't speak to earlier versions.)

there was an hours-long delay from saving, to showing on the website.
many data points didnt appear, same on adsbexchange - might have been out of signal range during that segment.
thanks

Yeah, that capability has been there for years.

ok, the reverse tonight - I need to put a kml file onto a FF sectional.

Save the kml. Share the kml. From the share screen, select Foreflight. It comes in as “custom content.” choose the appropriate type.
