The flight

What the tracklog shows, and which crossings scored.

Crossed the start cylinder boundary 5 times. The scored start is the latest crossing from which the flight still makes its best run along the course — re-starting supersedes an earlier start, while simply flying back through the cylinder later in the task changes nothing.
Start time taken: gate 5 of 6 — the last start gate at or before the crossing. The speed-section clock runs from the gate, not from the crossing (FAI S7F §8.3.1).15:30:00
