The flight

What the tracklog shows, and which crossings scored.

Crossed the start cylinder boundary 2 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.

Track data cleaning

1 of 1190 GPS fixes (<0.1%) carried an implausible altitude and were repaired before analysis — flagged by vertical-speed limits (no barometric channel to cross-check). Positions and times are never altered. How data cleaning works
