Compared simulated vs real flight times across 20 flights

Logged 20 real flights at four locations and compared them with Sky's simulation of the same conditions.

The sim ran slightly optimistic in heavy rain, and was otherwise close enough that I plan flights from it now.

How it turned out

Sky updated its rain model. Simulated flight times now land within 4% in wet conditions.

      Thanks for this. Rain adds drag and weight that the sim underestimated for small props. Your data helps tighten that — I've noted the offset for sub-5-inch builds in wet conditions.
