TIME ZONE CALCULATIONS CONCEPTS and TERMINOLOGY NEWS Sun rises in the EAST sets in WEST – implications, therefore when you move east day gets “older” +++ and when you move west day gets “younger” ---- Greenwich meridian VS GMT vs UT SA = ut+2 Daylight Savings Time – normally in summer. Reason is to enjoy an extra hour of sunlight at the end of the day. Calculate time zone difference between 2 places. Calculate time zone difference between 2 places WITH flying time as a variable.
