I think you and others will find it very handy when doing top speed per altitude tests..

What kind of defviation do you get flying through the rings? I try to stay within 10-20 feet of altitude.

Yup! That is why I use it over the others!
But that means you can't compare it with historical data because Z_Altitude_MSL is the 'tape measure' altitude not the Standard Day or "meteorological" altitude.

EDIT: AoA, I wonder if the rough running is an on-line problem only? Would be interested to hear how you get on if you retry the SpitMkIa/100oct offlinre at altitude.
