I finally went down the path of exporting my data, keeping it for safekeeping, and uploading into MyFlightRadar24. I mostly undertook this project, as I wanted a backup, just in case, and I want a more zoom-able map. CA for me on FlightMemory is just a blob.

So, here is how I did it:

This will export your data from FlightMemory into a Excel https://github.com/TobiasUr/FlightMemoryExporter
- Just download and run it, and all your flights are now backed up

Getting it into MFR24 is a bit more... challenging...

First Save your file as a CSV.
You MUST have the date column in the YYYY-MM-DD format
- Excel will really screw with you here, I had do set my Region in Windows to have that date format
The Duration MUST be in the format HH:MM:SS
- Again, Excel.... figure it out...
I modified all of my lines for Airlines and but I still can't get them to import. Maybe you can.

In MYFR24 is super easy to Delete All Flights, so... I have imported, reviewed and deleted about 7 times now. My total mileage is off just a bit, but the numbers and hours are correct.

Thanks for this! Just got myself moved over just in case.

Big fan of FlightMemory even if its been the same forever. Just scared to loose the data although with this migration it got me to kind of a master spreadsheet after piecing things together. Of course, in 2015 I didn't take the kind of notes I do now, but at least now its all in one place in my possession and on a couple services.
