Title: FAC calculations
Post by: EHM-1532 Søren on October 18, 2005, 03:16:59 pm

I was wondering how the FAC is calculated. I have made three flight with propilot with a FAC ranging from 330 up to 1250, still when I check my average, it's less then 300, so I am wondering how the average is calculated.

The FAC is (average FAC)/total number of flights

Like Cyriel said:

FAC = (average FS)/total number of flights.

FS = Flight Score. It is the score at a given flight.

So, if you make 2 flights, with FS of 75 and 115:
FS = 75+115
Average FS = (75+115)/2
FAC = 190/2 = 85

That's how I understood it. but maybe I should go back to school. Based on my three flights my FAC should be in the 800 range and not below 300 as it is now.

just curious how it works

Well I think it is correct.

You did 3 flights scoring 900, 1260, 330. The average of that is 830.

The formula is average flightscore/number of flights.

830/3=276.7

I was a little confused at 1st as well.

Now I am confused again!
After doing a flight with some penalties my FAC soared from 50.12 to 574.17
As I understand it  FAC=average FS/ number of flights.

For the 574.17 to be correct it's equeal to my average FS
Maybe I am getting it wrong again.

Of course you are confused. You need to read what we publish on the annoucements.

If you read our posts on http://www.fly-euroharmony.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=1797 it says there that there is a new FAC algorithm.

I also checked your both accounts and the new FAC is correct (following the new rules).

So, please read all the information, and read the Change Log. It's important to avoid these questions.

Thank you.
