An aircraft departs an airport in the eastern daylight time zone at 0945 EDT for a 2-hour flight to an airport located in the central daylight time zone. The landing should be at what coordinated universal time?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1545Z                  

Explanation:

The time zone of eastern daylight is 4 hours behind then the Coordinated Universal Time or the UTC. Eastern daylight time or EDT is the daylight saving time and is followed in countries like North America and Caribbean. While CDT or Central daylight time is 5 hours behind the UTC.

Now since the aircraft is flying from eastern daylight saving zone at 0945 EDT.

So in order to find the time at UTC, we need to add 4 hours to the EDT time that is 09:45 + 04:00 =   13 : 45

So now the flight is 2 hours journey. Therefore, adding  more 2 hours to 13:45 will give 15:45 UTC.

So the flight will land at 1545 UTC or 1545Z.
