Below are the Flight Analysis screen shots I was asked to submit. I provided the start and finish and a complete route.
I have the ones that are in-between also. The last one is "Have One Red", my ride.
To the committee members: if you require any other sort of validation, please let me know.
I made screen shots of the FSrealWX lite window at the start, a point mid-way, and at the end of this flight leg.
I started the first leg at 07:52 (all times UTC - simulator time), with full tanks (804 gals.) and 1214 pound payload. Gross weight was 23898 lbs.
Shut down occurred at 13:05. These times do not reflect the flight time I have and will report; simply the time at the start of the simulation and
at the close of the simulation.

Mephitic fumes in the cranial cavities blocked the gray matter from setting the correct heading to the second
NDB waypoint which resulted in the erroneous southerly course at the start of the flight. Charts, calculators and
eyeballs eventually corrected the navigational error.
Mephitic fumes indeed.
