Miami International to Bangor International MIA → BGR

1,269 nautical miles (1,461 statute miles) northeast on a straight line, true course 023°, about 028° magnetic at the departure end (variation 5W). At 120 knots that is 7 h 08 min at the quickest height in today's winds (39,000 ft, a 58-knot tailwind), arriving about 4:16 am EDT (08:16 UTC), after sunset at the destination. Right now MIA is VFR, wind calm; BGR is VFR, wind from the south-southwest (200°) at 7 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: 7 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 SIERRA 3E: low cloud or poor visibility (IFR conditions) (due to ceilings below 1,000 ft, visibility below 3 miles, precipitation, mist). Over the route from 849 to 1089 nm out.
AIRMET TANGO 6W: strong surface winds (30 knots or more) (due to sustained surface winds greater than 30 knots). Near the route, 919 nm along the route.
AIRMET TANGO 2W: moderate turbulence below 18,000 ft up to 18,000 ft. Over the route from 979 to 1249 nm out.
AIRMET ZULU 1C: moderate icing up to 24,000 ft. Over the route from 1059 to 1219 nm out.
AIRMET TANGO 3W: moderate turbulence above 18,000 ft from 21,000 ft to 33,000 ft. Over the last 180 nm of the route.
AIRMET TANGO 6W: moderate turbulence below 18,000 ft up to 7,000 ft. Over the last 10 nm of the route.

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 MIA.

Winds aloft along the route, and the time en route the forecast for use 20:00–03:00 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 11 forecast points nearest it (MIA, MLB, CHS, ILM, ORF, ACY, JFK, ACK, BOS, PWM, BGR). A plus sign is a headwind, a minus sign a tailwind.

Based on data from the 11th at 18:00 UTC; valid on the 12th at 00:00 UTC for use 20:00 to 03:00 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.
