Operational context
The Sylt – Miami sector links Westerland Sylt (EDXW) to Miami Opa-Locka (KOPF) over 7,593 km great-circle, about 8h42 airborne in a Gulfstream G650ER. The constraint here is rarely range but slot and parking availability at Miami Opa-Locka (2438 m runway). At this range a Gulfstream G650ER avoids a tech stop and preserves cabin comfort.
