A question for the clever people on this forum......

its usually quite light here at 11 am

straight away if it's 11 am.

dunno

8pm 5 and 7.

errrrrrrrrr sorry

i meant night time

daylight when you leave ,what you on about?

NIGHT TIME

ah post meridium

you would not the blinds are closed

So no one knows?

GR8 M8

i said clever people, get off this thread please

m8

DONT H8 M8

You'll get about 45 mins of dawn and daylight just before you land.

If HK is 8 hours ahead of the UK, flying east I think you would begin to see daylight about three hours into your flight. 2am UK time.

you'll be landing in HK late afternoon HK time.

BUT WHEN WOULD I SEE NIGHT TIME DURING THE FLIGHT?

No im landing 7 am

first three or four hours mate

8 M8

much man

first 3/ 4 hours will be day time

it won't be 7am in HK

how will it be daytime if you're flying at 11 at night?

8sid. just to be clear. Are you leaving UK at 11 am or 11 pm? You don't seem to be clear on this.


was clear in my original post

i said AM

only mistake what what will i see, i want to know when I SEE NIGHT TIME

IF AT ALL

OR WHAT TIME AND HOE LONG FOR

You will see very little night sky imo. perhaps a couple hours of twilight

It'll start to get dark 3 or 4 hours into the flight and you'll see the sunrise just before you land. Well, the pilot will anyway.

Assuming a direct flight at 12 hours, departing at 11 am uk time then it is daylight when you leave, and will darken after approx 2.5-3 hours, and then morning would break again about an 45 mins to an hour before you land. good flight times imo. well picked.

which way's your planet turning munch? :)

north to south, pole over pole, always has.

which way's your planet turning munch?


LOL

Stop worrying and analysing, just sit back, relax, have a few beers, a few beers more, then another beer and enjoy the flight.

Im not convinced ANYBODY actually knows

i also think it is a very good question

Myself and the muppet man have given you the correct info Sid. It's not difficult to work out. You're travelling East and sunrise in Hong Kong is about 6.30 at the moment.

so you think within 3/4 hours it will be dark?

just cant happen

Well Sid, it's a 4 and half flight from London to Cyprus where I am. It gets dark here about 4.30 local time at the moment. 2 hour time difference. So if you leave the UK at 11am (1pm here) it'll start to get dark 3 and half to 4 hours into the flight.

MOMM

thank you

you have convinced me

and how long will stay pitch dark for?

For the remainder of the flight I'm afraid. Sunrise will be about half an hour before you land.

mmom and myself are 100% correct methodology, and @ say 90-95% accurate in timings.

if your trying to avoid jetlag, then adjust meals as well as sleep to suit. so eat your eveining meal on just after getting on plane, get a few beers down you, and try to sleep 4 or 5 hours in. they will wake you for breakfast at around 5 am HK time, and you will land at 7 am. thats how I do it anyway.

at this time of year you would take off at 23:00 it would be dark. after 4.5 hours it would be about getting light. it would emain light until you land at 19:00 local time.

if you set off at 11:00 it would be light when you leave, depending on the time of year and direction flown it would get dark after about 6-7 hours and remain dark almost until you land at 07:00 the next day

yeh im gonna be wrecked before and during flight

it gets dark at 4.30pm in cyprus??

Well, depends on the time of year really :)

But sunset was at 16:40 today.
