11.3 Flight Memory and IGC File
11.3.1 Content of IGC File
In the IGC File are saved all important data of a flight in readable format. One can edit the
IGC File by using any desired Editor.
Though editing or altering is possible, the signature at the end of IGC File shall be invalidated.
This signature is calculated over all data and therefore covers the flight, as well as the pilot’s
personal data and the date. The signature is generated by the instrument itself.
Any misapplication is therefore practically excluded.
Sometimes it is helpful if one can import to Excel the raw data being stored in the IGC File
in order to practice own calculations.
Then please proceed as follows:
In Excel click on „open file“
In file types select all files.
Follow the 3 Import steps
Set the arrows for column disjunction as follows
