I've found strange record in schedule

NW908 Leg 2 B747-400 Osaka-Kansai Japan (RJBB) to Anchorage AK (PANC) 00:10 JST 13:30 ALT 3,675 miles 32.3 hours

3675 miles for 32 hrs it's not bad for a car but too much for B747

My one piece of advice would bve to make sure your Date/Time Format is correct in your profile. Who knows.

Take that back-it's the same for me too, and I never have problem with times. Since the schedule is updated based on real world flights, I'm sure it will change sooner or later.

Explanation is very simple: code in schedule does not recognize what time in Anchorage is one day behind

32.3 - 24 = 8.3 hrs (real duration)

Please create an issue in the issue tracker - sometimes we get the timezones for an airport wrong, etc.
