Notes Here is a flight I made last week in my P-210 N7311P from Greensboro, NC to Adirondack Regional in Saranac Lake, NY.
Pic. is attached with max speed on my 496.
I did not get a Pic. in flight, the other supporting documentation should suffice especially the Garmin Flightbook record.

Flightaware speed, This is in error as it is not backed up by other instruments or proceeding and following radar returns.

It seems that Flightaware understates speed with the exception of this one return.
