Cyril E King Airport to Tallahassee International STT → TLH
1,280 nautical miles (1,473 statute miles) northwest on a straight line, true course 308°, about 321° magnetic at the departure end (variation 13W). At 120 knots that is 11 h 02 min at the quickest height in today's winds (4,500 ft, a 4-knot headwind), arriving about 6:35 pm EDT (22:35 UTC). Right now STT is VFR, wind from the east (090°) at 7 knots; TLH is VFR, wind calm. 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 flights in the DOT's last twelve reported months, the route's page.

Winds aloft along the route, and the time en route the forecast for use 08:00–15:00 UTC · at 120 knots true airspeed
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 4 forecast points nearest it (MIA, MLB, JAX, TLH). A plus sign is a headwind, a minus sign a tailwind.

Based on data from the 12th at 06:00 UTC; valid on the 12th at 12:00 UTC for use 08:00 to 15:00 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.
