Different calibrations, please check.

I feel that the calibration of my PP is not going well. That's why I completely restarted yesterday.
I have done a full reset of the PP. I then created a new profile with 'Best Accuracy'.
Afterwards I reach a suitable place for the calibration. Connection of sensors has been successful and is ready for calibration.
The PP first carried out its own calibration. This went well from 0-50, stopped, made a U-turn and further from 51-100. Sounds good.
Then started a calibration trip of 3.2 km O&B (total 6.4 km).
This ride used for 'Check Calibration' option in Isaac. See upload. This calibration trip had the same route for the first kilometer as the first calibration. The calibrations are performed directly one after the other in calm weather conditions and no traffic.
After the calibrations I recorded a ride of 24km that PP based on the first automatic calibration. (See upload 2).
I think the differences between the calibrations are quite large.
Aero Wind: 0.982 (PP Cal) vs 1.027 (Cal Ride)
Friction: 9.297 vs 12.725
Riding Tilt: -0.7 vs -1.1
Wind Scaling: -2,908 vs -2,936
My body weight = 69 kg
Weight of bike & Gear = 14.5 kg
Position PP: Go Pro Front Mount - Giant Conduct (https://images.app.goo.gl/WdaFPFXGzbygusA56)
The differences in the calibrations make the values in the 24km ride quite different, in my opinion:
Peak Watt: 946 (PP Cal) vs 914 (Cal Ride)
5sec Watt: 771 vs 743
10 min Watt: 297 vs 325
20 min Watt: 270 vs 290
Average watts: 196 vs 213
My measured FTP on the Wahoo Kickr indoor trainer is around 240 watts (20 min FTP test), so the values above are quite significant. In addition, I did not even have the impression that I had to go so deep.
Can you check my calibrations? Thanks in advance!
