Flying stats dashboards always amuse me. I get it, for the non-pilot it's kind of like a status thing, "Well I traveled X times in 2025!". As a pilot though, I have gobs of stats I could put up there but from flying for 15 years I realize there's not really anything meaningful in there other than "Gee whiz, I flew a little more/less than last year." I know some other professional pilots do track some of their stats a little closer as they try to optimize for hours flown:hours paid but I've never cared to hyper optimize my schedule in that way.
