Ted Stevens Anchorage International to Buffalo Municipal ANC → BFK
2,372 nautical miles (2,730 statute miles) east on a straight line, true course 104°, about 088° magnetic at the departure end (variation 16E). At 120 knots that is 14 h 33 min at the quickest height in today's winds (30,000 ft, a 43-knot tailwind), arriving about 5:27 pm CDT (22:27 UTC). 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: 1 flights in the DOT's last twelve reported months, the route's page.

Turbulence AIRMET in force: moderate turbulence from 18,000 ft to 39,000 ft, over the route from 1505 to 1505 nm out; AIRMET in force: moderate turbulence (due to mountain wave) from 34,000 ft to 45,000 ft, near the route, 2033 nm along the route. No pilot has reported turbulence near the line in the last three hours. The government's turbulence forecast map ↗
Icing AIRMET in force: moderate icing up to 22,000 ft, over the route from 1764 to 2023 nm out. No pilot has reported icing near the line in the last three hours. The freezing level is below 7,500 ft, the lowest forecast height, so any cloud could carry ice. The government's icing forecast map ↗
A SIGMET warns of weather hazardous to all aircraft; an AIRMET of weather that matters to small aircraft and to flying without instruments. "From 60 to 180 nm out" is measured along the route from ANC.

Based on data from the 13th at 00:00 UTC; valid on the 13th at 06:00 UTC for use 02:00 to 09:00 UTC; temperatures above 24,000 ft are below zero. 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.

From the FAA's notice service (NOTAMs), the site's copy refreshed every few minutes; last checked a minute ago. The FAA has so far issued eFlight its test feed, which misses some notices (checked against the FAA's own search on 12 October: about a third missing at Santa Barbara and Burbank, none at Atlanta or Las Vegas); the request for the full feed is with the FAA. Times are local to the field. This is for planning; the legal briefing comes from Flight Service or the FAA's own tools.
Daylight
Sunset at ANC 6:54 pm AKDT (02:54 UTC), at BFK 7:03 pm CDT (00:03 UTC) (civil twilight ends 7:29 pm CDT (00:29 UTC)).
Each restriction opens the FAA's own page with the exact area, heights and times.
The wind over the route live wind map, from Windy.com · drag the time bar for the coming hours; the level menu changes the height
Colours show wind speed, the moving lines its direction, at the surface unless you pick a height. Map and forecast by Windy.com; a second opinion beside the government's winds-aloft table above.
Radar and forecast charts for the regions crossed government pictures, the latest each time the page loads · the turbulence and icing forecasts: turbulence ↗ · icing ↗










Sources: the Aviation Weather Center's data service (SIGMETs, AIRMETs, graphical AIRMETs, pilot reports, winds and temperatures aloft, observations and terminal forecasts), the National Weather Service radar, the Weather Prediction Center's charts, the FAA's temporary flight restriction list and shapes, and the FAA's airport file for the positions, elevations and magnetic variation. Fetched when the page is viewed and kept a few minutes. Each leg is the straight line between its two airports; airways, terrain and airspace are not considered. The airports in detail: Ted Stevens Anchorage International, Buffalo Municipal.
