I meant to post this last night, as noted by Nick and the shirt that Starr made for him for his birthday...... which is May 11th if that helps the timeline?

pitstop (either 36 or 12 hour, the opposite of the length of the 5/7 pitstop)
5/9 leg 8 begins in the afternoon; Delhi to Almaty Kazakhstan
there were 3 different routes chosen, inexplicable to me based on what should have been an easy connection through Dubai that would have arrived at 1630:
Nick/Starr, Toni/Dallas and Ken/Tina
DEL FRA LH761 0225 0710 connects FRA ALA LH648 1320 2350
Dan/Andrew
DEL DXB EK513 0415 0630 connects DXB ALA KC898 2255 0515
Terence/Sarah
DEL SVO SU536 0430-0930 connects with TK1414 SVO IST 1350 1555 connects with TK1352 IST 1725 0150+1
5/10 Almaty area tasks; pitstop
5/11 leg 9 begins; fly KC871 ALA SVO 0615 0800;
tasks in Moscow area;
extended 36 hour pitstop
5/12 pitstop continued
5/13 leg 10 begins; tasks in Moscow area; regular pitstop
5/14 leg 11, the FINISH LINE in The Rose City, Portland Oregon
0705 0825 LH3189 DME FRA
0945 1120 LH468 FRA PDX, then tasks until FINISH LINE
For any teams who are too late (due to retrieval of lost documents or due to not having enough money for the taxi ride) to make the 0705 flight, then the next best alternative is the combination
KL3105 SVO AMS 1010 1200 connecting with KL6033 AMS SEA KL8067 1315 1435 connecting with SEA PDX 1600 1650
The connections on this flight are reasonably tight, so there is no possiblity of any other flights on the same routes to shave time. It starts 3 hours after LH3189 and it has one more connection, causing on-time arrival in Portland to be 5.5 hours behind LH648.

Where did Moscow go??
But this is great! Those flights almost certainly could explain seeing D/A in Portland around 6...

Peach, don't get excited, as what you have found was an instance of prior information not being deleted from my timeline as it should have. Flight KC671 is nonstop Almaty to Moscow-Sheremetyevo.
