I was able fly 4700 nm with Concorde, but at FL630 and M2.00. At touchdown, in my tanks was 4 tons of fuel...
Landing at Juneau in the limited visibilty may be realy tricky, but for good trained pilots not very difficult. Concorde with 94 tons of fuel can takeoff without any problems - afternurner on, 60kts limiter for #4 off and all is OK. Tested many times :)

I have a 4700nm version of the Lineage1000e+some ETAP. But since It0uchpods is doing a fix on the 707, I guess, all is good.

IAHM-COL :
With empty tanks Concorde maneuvre like fighter. But speed must not decrease under 180 knots, stall characteristic is very deadly. Landing distance with weight around 100 tons with full reversers is incredible short.
I must perfectly schedule all flight, I can't fly 0.8M at FL300 all route, subsonic range is very short, under 3000 nm.

Welcome to the FFFS forum!
Those speeds ate similar to MD-11 speeds, and I've landed that bird there. You should be okay.

I made test flight with Concorde on the planned route at FL630 :twisted:. And safe landed in PAJN with 17 tons fuel in the tanks after 4:33 hours. But after check FDR British Airways probably will cancel my pilot licence, I violated rule about maximum FL600. Cold air is my very good friend :mrgreen:
