The flight

What the tracklog shows, and which crossings scored.

Crossed the start cylinder boundary 15 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.
…and 3 more crossings
Start time taken: gate 6 of 7 — 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).04:45:00
Completed the task — full task distance is credited.
