Phoenix Sky Harbor International to Mahlon Sweet Field PHX → EUG

827 nautical miles (952 statute miles) northwest on a straight line, true course 324°, about 312° magnetic at the departure end (variation 12E). At 120 knots that is 6 h 47 min at the quickest height in today's winds (8,500 ft, a 2-knot tailwind), arriving about 5:33 am PDT (12:33 UTC), after sunset at the destination. Right now PHX is VFR, wind from the east (080°) at 6 knots; EUG is VFR, wind from the east (090°) at 3 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: 1,253 flights in the DOT's last twelve reported months, the route's page.

The westbound cruising heights for this course (VFR: even thousands plus 500 ft; above 18,000 ft the forecast levels), with the wind averaged along the line from the 9 forecast points nearest it (PHX, PRC, LAS, ELY, BAM, RNO, LKV, RDM, OTH). A plus sign is a headwind, a minus sign a tailwind.

Based on data from the 12th at 00:00 UTC; valid on the 12th at 06:00 UTC for use 02:00 to 09:00 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.
