Atlantic City International to Middle Georgia Regional ACY → MCN

598 nautical miles (689 statute miles) southwest on a straight line, true course 230°, about 240° magnetic at the departure end (variation 10W). At 120 knots that is 5 h 48 min at the quickest height in today's winds (6,500 ft, a 17-knot headwind), arriving about 3:53 am EDT (07:53 UTC), after sunset at the destination. Right now ACY is low IFR, wind from the north (360°) at 4 knots; MCN is VFR, wind from the west (270°) at 4 knots. For planning, not a briefing: the legal preflight briefing comes from Flight Service (1-800-WX-BRIEF) or the FAA's own tools. Airlines fly this pair: 17 flights in the DOT's last twelve reported months, the route's page.

Heights are above sea level; a height is left out when the forecast has no wind for it over most of the line (the ground is higher). Ground speed is the airspeed less the headwind; the time en route is for the straight line and ignores climb, descent and routing around weather.
