Leg 14: Bandar Lengeh IR to Jask IR 217 NM 00:43:00 ETE
This segment sees us passing over the well-known Straits of Hormuz, where nearly twenty percent of the world’s oil supply passes through annually. From our launch position at Bandar Lengeh, it’s less than a half-hour’s flying time to the fabulous and majestic city-state of Dubai, but we’re continuing East. It’s definitely hot, and has been so since Bushehr - typica OAT on the ramp is in the high 80s, only dropping down into the low 70s at cruise. Once again, an unlit arrival field makes our sunset timing very hazardous.
