September 7, 2025Sep 7 Not sure if I am setting up Times properly....When launching time on APT I put desirable time. This time was 14:30 and dept time 15:00 UTC in OMDB....And it's Dark. Also flying from EHAM at 14:00 to NY I land 2050 and of course dark.... Was this ever topic or I missed something and does anything exist to fix this "problem"? LOL Alex
September 7, 2025Sep 7 Not sure I follow. Dubai is UTC+4, so 1500 UTC is 1900 local. Today sunset there was at 1830 local. What are you expecting to see?

Hmmm....Actually I am mixing time when choosing the airport... Instead local for OMDB I chose UTC. I guess that threw me "out of time"...Make sense. Last year or so I was fling only in EU and now decided to wonder around the world.... LOL. Thanks Alex

And yes, on top of the time Zones (vs UTC) the closer to the equator the faster the sun sets. Quite, well, natural… I am still amazed about the difference just in Germany. While it is pitch dark at 10pm in EDDM the sun just sets in EDXW near Denmark.

For a moment I thought I was having a brain moment when I saw the thread title pop up and thinking: "Because it's supposed to be?"
