Could Poes Xwing have reveled the location of the resistance base

[the lego guy]

just rewatching the force awakens as part of my may 4th movie marathon and wondered if the first order would have been able to look at poes xwings flight plan when on jakku instead of or before blowing it up. they could have looked at his flight plan, found the location of the resitance base and launched an attack before the resistance would have been able to respond. IDEK if its possible but the first order may have made a big mistake there. if we have black boxes in aircraft would there be a star wars equivilent? idk but anybody got any ideas?

They probably could've, but obviously didn't. Got looked over in the heat of battle.

How many problems do you think could have been solved across the whole timeline if they just looked at the computer saying this if they did we wouldn't have Star Wars so no complaints

I think you've got to be a bit philosophical when it comes to films. They are fantastic escapism with contemporary and historical references. But, some of the escapism depends upon not over questioning, for example, does it matter that the Dodge Charger in 'Bullet' lost 5 or 6 hub caps during the car chase scene? Was the volume of defeated German troops in the final 45 minutes of 'Where Eagles Dare' realistic? Could the 'Swiss Family Robinson' really have defeated 200 pirates with coconut bombs?

Completely agree. My thought process was more is it possible rather than would it have happened. As a kid and even still now as nearly an adult I still love all of Star Wars and there are so many aspects of the films like the bombs falling in ep8 that I just don't care about. If I see thing go boom then I'm happy
