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.

Notes:Enroute from MEM to 6A2 (Griffin Co. near Atlanta). As you can see from the GPS, I turned from my on-course heading to get a more direct tailwind. This was descending out of 17,500. The aircraft was especially slick with a recently overhauled RAM engine and new paint.
