Brief Description:  Flight Log - extract & review 1st flight

Extracted the Dynon SkyView data logs and spent hrs pouring over the numbers and reviewing the flight performance and the engine operation. The log was set to sample 1/sec and the .5 hr of the first flight was huge.

The extensive detail and number of sensors provided more than enough data to cofirm the information was very helpful to diagnose the flgitht in detail. The following examples;
* Max fuel flow - 14.8 gal/hr, during the go-around and turn-out to downwind. Climbing to pattern altitude at almost 1,700 ft/min.
* Max RPM noted was just over 2400 rpm, during level flight at 3000 MSL.
* There was a difference of 10% in the IAS, TAS, and GPS Grnd Spd at various times, on a suppsedly 'calm morning'.
* Max oild temp (and 'normal') during most of the flight was 180 Degs F.
* EGT/CHT's were surprisingly consist and steady

Decided to reduce sample rate on 2nd flight to 1/5 sec intervals.
