You probably caught it right on the edge of the minute. When it calculated the difference between the local time and GMT the time
changed. Unlikely but possible?

if your refering to the flight time being around 2 hours, and the GMT time onlt being minutes.................

according to fs9 (i have just checked) UUEE has a 2 hour time difference from GMT, where as USSS has a 4 hour time difference from
GMT time (as it states in your report)

just checked on 'world clock' on the net, and this says the same, you must have flown across 2 time lines, so when you departed and landed, it was infact the same GMT time

Ehm, seems not possible to me...Local time can be the same, GMT must be different (GMT is not location specific!). Another question
about GMT: I just landed. According to my flight report I landed at 18.25 GMT. That's not right...according to servinfo, world clock etc it
should be 17.25....Does fspassengers take daylight saving time into account?

Kind regards,

Here's another one:

Departure: 15h03 (10h04 GMT)
Arrival: 17h12 (11h12 GMT)
...
Time Airborne: 01h57:26
Flight Time (block): 02h06:36

That is, the difference between GMT times is not 2:08 but 1:08.
