--- Quote from: apskip on November 14, 2008, 10:08:18 AM ---I want to go through an analysis of timing in Oman to see how that affects which flight teams might get. Here it is:
before Nizwah fort is essentially irrevelant due to Hours of Operation
enter Nizwah Fort 700am
Mutrah Souq 715am
Carpet or Count It take about 1 hour 815am
Wadi Tanuf 1045am
Ida/Tania reach pitstop 1100am
Geoff/Tisha reach pitstop 1115am
Sam/Vince finish after 4 hour penalty 0330pm
--- End quote ---
Muttrah souq is in Muscat while Wadi Tanuf is 20 kms. beyond Nizwa so you'll have to adjust your time schedule. Nizwa is about 1.5 hours drive from Muscat

Now that I have seen the ep.10 video, I need to make minor adjustments to my analysis of timing in Oman to see how that affects which flight teams might get. Here it is:
before Nizwah fort is essentially irrevelant due to Hours of Operation
enter Nizwah Fort 815am
Mutrah Souq 1045am (Note: 2.5 hours per Allan Wu; not clear if that includes time being lost by all 4 teams)
Carpet or Count It take about 1 hour 1145am
Wadi Tanuf 2 hours 50 min. drive 235pm
Ida/Tania reach pitstop 250pm
Geoff/Tisha reach pitstop 300pm
Sam/Vince finish after 4 hour penalty 715pm
Assume a 12 hour pitstop, that releases teams to start ep. 11, the Finale, at:
Ida/Tania 250am
Geoff/Tisha 300am
Sam/Vince 730am
However, there is an walk camels in the desert task that will take an unknown amount of time to get to and do it. Assume that the total of those is 1 hour.
With a minimum 2.5 hour drive back to the Muscat Airport, the earliest teams can arrive is:
Ida/Tania 620am
Geoff/Tisha 630am
Sam/Vince 1100am
They all should also be able to EK6479 MCT DXB 1335 1440(there are also equivalent earlier flights) connecting with TG522 DXB BKK 1755 0505+1. It is now Sunday June 8. The flights they can catch are from Bangkok on sundya are different than the ones for Saturday:
Koh Chang/Trat 09:00 10:05 BKK TDX PG301
Koh Samui PG103 0600 0705 or TG285 0745 0850 or PG123 0815 0920
Phuket TG203 0730 0850 or TG201 0750 0910 or PG271 0810 0930
EDITOR'S NOTE - this version was redone after seeng the ep.10 video and now mirrors an earlier post that was also modified. It was put here due to its implications for ep.11.
