Scottsbluff/Western Nebraska Rgnl/Wm B Heilig Field to Roswell Air Center Airport BFF → ROW

517 nautical miles (595 statute miles) south on a straight line, true course 185°, about 175° magnetic at the departure end (variation 10E). At 120 knots that is 4 h 42 min at the quickest height in today's winds (5,500 ft, a 10-knot headwind), arriving about 4:50 am MDT (10:50 UTC), after sunset at the destination. Right now BFF is marginal VFR, wind from the east (080°) at 11 knots; ROW is VFR, wind from the south-southwest (210°) at 15 knots, gusting to 26. 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.

Green, blue, red and purple airport dots are the flying conditions reported there now (VFR, marginal VFR, IFR, low IFR); grey means no report. Red areas are SIGMETs, orange areas AIRMETs, hatched red areas temporary flight restrictions. Map tiles: OpenFreeMap, data © OpenStreetMap contributors.

Turbulence SIGMET in force: turbulence, near the route, 248 nm along the route; AIRMET in force: moderate turbulence (due to mountain wave) up to 25,000 ft, over the route from 109 to 338 nm out. 2 pilot reports of turbulence near the line in the last three hours: light to moderate chop turbulence up to 19,000 ft, 36 nm west, 9:14 pm MDT (03:14 UTC); light chop turbulence, at descending, 38 nm west, 10:20 pm MDT (04:20 UTC). The government's turbulence forecast map ↗

Icing AIRMET in force: moderate icing up to 22,000 ft, near the route, at the departure end. No pilot has reported icing near the line in the last three hours. The freezing level is about 14,500 ft (from the winds-aloft temperatures), so icing is possible in cloud above that. 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 BFF.

The eastbound cruising heights for this course (VFR: odd thousands plus 500 ft; above 18,000 ft the forecast levels), with the wind averaged along the line from the 5 forecast points nearest it (BFF, DEN, PUB, TCC, ROW). A plus sign is a headwind, a minus sign a tailwind.

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 1 minutes 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 BFF 6:14 pm MDT (00:14 UTC), at ROW 6:26 pm MDT (00:26 UTC) (civil twilight ends 6:51 pm MDT (00:51 UTC)). At 120 knots the arrival at ROW is before sunrise there (7:00 am MDT (13:00 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.
