Points Issue

[M@ttyB1971]

Just a quick one for all you chaps........



I have a funny(odd) thing happen on some flights. On a normal flight I think we can all agree we can range to about 400 points regularly.

This is without bad weather, war zones, technical gremlins in your plane and other emergencies. Obviously WHEN those things happen your points
go to a healthy 1000+.



The issue I have is when on a NORMAL uneventful flight with no weather, war, technical issues factoring in AND it is usually a long flight (anything
over 2 1/2 hrs) I only seem to gain 80 points. This can be after a 4 1/2 hr flight in my King Air with no explanation as to why so low because we all get
points for a long flight don't we. I can fly the exact flight again and this time I gain extra points for long flight etc.



Would appreciate somebody else's insight to this little conundrum, cheers.
