En-Route
I just filed a flight plan, using Foreflight, for a flight this afternoon. This is from one uncontrolled field to another (if that matters).
I filed my takeoff time as 2:00 PM with 1:47 enroute.
When I go to flightaware.com, it shows the following:
So it shows my "scheduled" times but then adds 10 minutes, for what? I used to think it was to allow for gate/pushback/taxi times for the airlines, but now I'm not so sure, since the ETE stayed the same.
Not a big deal really with 10 minutes, but last week I had one that added about 40 minutes to my time.
Anybody know how Flightaware is calculating these?
