Salt Lake City International to Central Wyoming Regional SLC → RIW

208 nautical miles (240 statute miles) northeast on a straight line, true course 048°, about 037° magnetic at the departure end (variation 11E). At 120 knots that is 1 h 04 min at the quickest height in today's winds (34,000 ft, a 75-knot tailwind), arriving about 12:16 am MDT (06:16 UTC), after sunset at the destination. Right now SLC is VFR, wind from the north (350°) at 5 knots; RIW is marginal VFR, wind from the northwest (310°) at 10 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 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 ZULU 1C: moderate icing up to 22,000 ft. Over the whole route.
  • AIRMET SIERRA 1E: mountains obscured by cloud (due to mountains obscured by clouds, precipitation, mist). Over the whole route.
  • 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 last 188 nm of the route.
  • AIRMET TANGO 1W: moderate turbulence above 18,000 ft (due to mountain wave) from 34,000 ft to 45,000 ft. Near the route, at the destination end.

Turbulence AIRMET in force: moderate turbulence (due to mountain wave) from 34,000 ft to 45,000 ft, near the route, at the destination end. 3 pilot reports of turbulence near the line in the last three hours: light to moderate turbulence from 11,000 ft to 17,000 ft, 20 nm south, 10:09 pm MDT (04:09 UTC); light turbulence from 11,000 ft to 17,000 ft, 30 nm west, 10:12 pm MDT (04:12 UTC). The government's turbulence forecast map ↗

Icing AIRMET in force: moderate icing up to 22,000 ft, over the whole route. 4 pilot reports of icing near the line in the last three hours: light to moderate rime icing from 9,500 ft to 15,000 ft, 15 nm west, 8:14 pm MDT (02:14 UTC); light rime icing from 14,000 ft to 17,000 ft, 30 nm west, 10:12 pm MDT (04:12 UTC). The freezing level is about 9,500 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 SLC.

Based on data from the 13th at 00:00 UTC; valid on the 13th 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.

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.

Daylight

Sunset at SLC 6:50 pm MDT (00:50 UTC), at RIW 6:34 pm MDT (00:34 UTC) (civil twilight ends 7:03 pm MDT (01:03 UTC)). At 120 knots the arrival at RIW is before sunrise there (7:24 am MDT (13:24 UTC)).

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