56. An aircraft flies 100 NM at 107 kt GS and departs at 0933 UTC. What is ETA?
Answer
1029 UTC
Explanation
Flight time is $100/107$ hours, about 56 minutes. Adding 56 minutes to 0933 gives **1029 UTC**. **Key takeaway:** Convert the distance-to-speed result into elapsed time. **Glossary:** GS: distance covered per unit time over the ground.
