Westchester County to Lancaster Airport HPN → LNS

131 nautical miles (151 statute miles) southwest on a straight line, true course 245°, about 258° magnetic at the departure end (variation 13W). At 120 knots that is 1 h 16 min at the quickest height in today's winds (34,000 ft, a 16-knot headwind), arriving about 1:20 pm EDT (17:20 UTC). Right now HPN is VFR, wind from the southeast (130°) at 10 knots; LNS is VFR, wind from the south-southwest (200°) at 5 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: 3 flights in the DOT's last twelve reported months, the route's page.

The return flight

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 3W: moderate turbulence above 18,000 ft from 26,000 ft to 38,000 ft. Over the whole route.

Turbulence AIRMET in force: moderate turbulence from 26,000 ft to 38,000 ft, over the whole route. 5 pilot reports of turbulence near the line in the last three hours: moderate chop turbulence, at 34,000 ft, 11 nm south, 11:07 am EDT (15:07 UTC); light turbulence, at 27,000 ft, 20 nm southeast, 11:38 am EDT (15:38 UTC). The government's turbulence forecast map ↗

Icing No icing warning in force along the route. No pilot has reported icing near the line in the last three hours. The freezing level is about 14,000 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 HPN.

Pilot reports along the route within 50 nm of the line, last three hours, the serious ones first

  • GA6C at 34,000 ft, 11 nm south, 11:07 am EDT (15:07 UTC): moderate chop turbulence. 93 nm along the route, 11 nm south of the line.

Based on data from the 13th at 12:00 UTC; valid on the 13th at 18:00 UTC for use 14:00 to 21:00 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 HPN 6:17 pm EDT (22:17 UTC), at LNS 6:28 pm EDT (22:28 UTC) (civil twilight ends 6:56 pm EDT (22:56 UTC)).

Each restriction opens the FAA's own page with the exact area, heights and times.

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.
