![]() "RST Engineering" wrote in message ... Not sure of anything, Steve, but follow my logic along here, willya? I'm roughly in the middle of the Western time zone. Lexington is right on the western border of the Eastern time zone. Therefore, sunrise is going to happen "later" for Lexington (with respect to their time zone) than it is for me. My local newspaper gives today's sunrise as 6:31. Since each time zone is pretty nearly one hour in width, Lexington's sunrise is going to be about half an hour "later" (in their time zone) than mine. Adding half an hour to my time zone gives roughly 7 am as sunrise in Lexington, just about what the rest of the gang is saying. My best guess is that they began their departure about an hour before sunrise. And, after sunrise, I doubt that the taped comment about the runway lights being inop would have been made. Runway lights after sunrise don't generally generate comments. It appears the online sunrise calculator I used is off by one hour. |
