Roanoke/Blacksburg Regional (Woodrum Field) to Oakland San Francisco Bay Airport ROA → OAK

1,994 nautical miles (2,295 statute miles) west on a straight line, true course 284°, about 292° magnetic at the departure end (variation 8W). At 120 knots that is 17 h 58 min at the quickest height in today's winds (4,500 ft, a 9-knot headwind), arriving about 11:47 am PDT (18:47 UTC). Right now ROA is IFR, wind from the north-northeast (030°) at 6 knots; OAK is VFR, wind from the west-southwest (240°) at 17 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: 4 flights in the DOT's last twelve reported months, the route's page.

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.
