From the FAA's notice service (NOTAMs), the site's copy refreshed every few minutes; last checked 2 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 ELP 6:34 pm MDT (00:34 UTC), at MAF 7:17 pm CDT (00:17 UTC) (civil twilight ends 7:42 pm CDT (00:42 UTC)). At 120 knots the arrival at MAF is before sunrise there (7:50 am CDT (12:50 UTC)).
