CA to HI starts with headwind usually north of 30N and route goes south of
30N about mid trip. Some single engine ferry flights to HI and beyond have
ditched short of HI when the tailwind did not meet expectations. ERAU
Prescott AZ had a seminar one evening of a ferry flight for a Cirrus to
Sydney. The Cirrus took off from KSFO about 2000 over gross; crossed 30N
and made it to HI and beyond.
Took a physical geography course at a local college in 2015 and the global
air circulation patterns indicate in the Northern hemisphere that between
30N and 60N the prevailing winds at all altitudes below about FL400 are
from the west and that the prevailing winds from the equator to 30N are
from the East.
