In the "Roster" there is an "Est.Time" for each leg. Is that the TT ? Just wondering, because, when I do the 'Pre-Flight Math' based upon my Test Flight speed result; it's not even close to the Est. time shown. Have never run across this issue in any of the Air Rally events I've been in before.
For Leg 3 I Switched to "Active Sky with Historical Weather" and found much different conditions affecting the flight time.

The Estimated time is the target time for the leg allowing for cruising, climb out and descent and also any touch and goes along the way. As we accept such a broad range of aircraft the "up and down and bounce about" allowance has to be a generic value. If it is a bit on the generous side that allows for some sightseeing along the way.
Weather settings across a number of sims can vary, and even across multiple installations of the same sim. The base information came from Bureau of Meteorology records.
Cheers,
Allan

AHH so thats it, great explanation. Still LMAO.
Another great GAAR. Using ORBX AU2, never been to AU but my Granddaughter tells me of the beauty.
Using Tiny Tracker after flights, great sites.
