60 miles for a jet at usual speed would be about 40 seconds or so.

600 mph == 10 miles in 1 minute

If they were at cruising speed, perhaps, but they were attempting to land. That’s why, when I completely misread the article, I thought it was very odd that it flew another 60 miles. It didn’t. LOL. Different incident all together.

Wouldn’t 10 miles per minute mean that 60 miles would take 6 minutes?
