Question Time Calculation between time zones

I just dont get it.
I leave Brimingham AL AT 6pm cst and arrive in Houston 2 hrs later.
I have a 1 hr layover and then fly to Las Vegas and arrive ay 10:30 pm local time.


The way I see it is that I left at 4pm pst and arrived 1030 pst.
That totals 6.5 hrs total time.
I subtract 2 hrs of flight for birmingham to houston and 1hr for the layover leaves 3.5 hrs of flight time between Houston and Las Vegas.

How is that wrong?

Dont tell me that all the pilots (several) that are my brothers neighbors are all wrong.

Correction: They arent pilots. They just travel often.
4 views and no replies is that because this is a stupid question or do they know something I dont?



Help me understand this please.

The only thing I can think of is the 4 minute per some degre along with the 15 degree time zone.

I need help please.
