Best program to open igc files?

Thanks in advance


They're text files, so any text editor - Notepad in Windows, TextEdit for Mac will open it and display it as text.

If you want to see the file displayed graphically, there are free options. One that works online is https://igcviewer.bgaladder.net/ . Browse to the file, then open it. You get a view of the glider track, and a barogram.

Here's a list of analysis programs for IGC files:
