Mahlon Sweet Field to Capital Region International EUG → LAN
1,670 nautical miles (1,922 statute miles) east on a straight line, true course 079°, about 064° magnetic at the departure end (variation 15E). At 120 knots that is 9 h 36 min at the quickest height in today's winds (39,000 ft, a 54-knot tailwind), arriving about 4:22 pm EDT (20:22 UTC). Right now EUG is VFR, wind calm; LAN is VFR, wind from the southwest (220°) at 11 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: 2 flights in the DOT's last twelve reported months, the route's page.
The route the straight line, the warnings crossed, restrictions, pilot reports and the airports along the way · click a mark for its words
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.
Warnings the route crosses SIGMETs and AIRMETs whose area the line passes through or comes within 25 nm of
- AIRMET TANGO 1W: moderate turbulence above 18,000 ft from 18,000 ft to 39,000 ft. Over the route from 130 to 600 nm out.
- AIRMET SIERRA 1E: mountains obscured by cloud (due to mountains obscured by clouds, precipitation, mist). Over the route from 560 to 680 nm out.
- AIRMET SIERRA 9E: low cloud or poor visibility (IFR conditions) (due to ceilings below 1,000 ft, visibility below 3 miles, precipitation, mist). Over the route from 640 to 760 nm out.
- AIRMET ZULU 1C: moderate icing up to 21,000 ft. Over the route from 670 to 940 nm out.
- AIRMET TANGO 1W: moderate turbulence above 18,000 ft from 24,000 ft to 36,000 ft. Over the route from 770 to 1360 nm out.
Turbulence AIRMET in force: moderate turbulence from 18,000 ft to 39,000 ft, over the route from 130 to 600 nm out; AIRMET in force: moderate turbulence from 24,000 ft to 36,000 ft, over the route from 770 to 1360 nm out. 2 pilot reports of turbulence near the line in the last three hours: moderate chop turbulence, at 35,000 ft, 28 nm south, 3:25 am PDT (10:25 UTC); light chop turbulence, at 33,000 ft, 32 nm south, 12:55 am PDT (07:55 UTC). The government's turbulence forecast map ↗
Icing AIRMET in force: moderate icing up to 21,000 ft, over the route from 670 to 940 nm out. A pilot reported no icing, at 4,800 ft, 23 nm south, 3:00 am PDT (10:00 UTC). The freezing level is about 11,500 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 EUG.

Winds aloft along the route, and the time en route the forecast for use 08:00–15:00 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 13 forecast points nearest it (RDM, BOI, DLN, BIL, MLS, RAP, PIR, ABR, FSD, MSP, LSE, GRB, MKG). A plus sign is a headwind, a minus sign a tailwind.

Based on data from the 13th at 06:00 UTC; valid on the 13th at 12:00 UTC for use 08:00 to 15:00 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.

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.

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.
