Mahlon Sweet Field to Charlotte/Douglas International EUG → CLT

2,001 nautical miles (2,303 statute miles) east on a straight line, true course 091°, about 076° magnetic at the departure end (variation 15E). At 120 knots that is 12 h 26 min at the quickest height in today's winds (39,000 ft, a 41-knot tailwind), arriving about 11:33 am EDT (15:33 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: 2 flights in the DOT's last twelve reported months, the route's page.

AIRMET TANGO 4W: moderate turbulence above 18,000 ft from 18,000 ft to 36,000 ft. Over the route from 548 to 926 nm out.
AIRMET TANGO 5W: strong surface winds (30 knots or more) (due to sustained surface winds greater than 30 knots). Near the route, 597 nm along the route.

Winds aloft along the route, and the time en route the forecast for use 02:00–09:00 UTC · at 120 knots true airspeed

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 16 forecast points nearest it (RDM, BOI, PIH, LND, BFF, ONL, GRI, OMA, MKC, COU, STL, EVV, LOU, TYS, TRI, GSP). A plus sign is a headwind, a minus sign a tailwind.

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.
