This is for a novel for research. If you're in a FBI-issued helicopter, flying from D.C. to London, would you still have the five hour time difference to fly through? Would you get there less than a hour or half-hour alone? Curious to know. If five hours, I have to change the time sequence to make it logical and believable.

The helicopter would have to make several fuel stops to London and it will be traveling at less than half the speed of a commercial carrier, so I would expect the trip to take the better part of a day to make.

The timezones are there regardles off what youre flying.
Think off it as this: When youre departing youre changing youre clock to the arrivial time (in this case add 5 or 6 hour). Then add the fly time (taking that a heli makas about 300 km/hours at most it will be much longer than your civil jet liner) and you will have your arrivial time. Its as simple as that! Johan

I sincerely doubt that a helicopter would be able to do the flight from DC to London....
