Let's assume Mutt and Galaxy are flying this ill fated trip, but I plan it, as they can't...

4600 lbs of fuel, Two Crew, Five Pax

FL390 MQI to TXKF: 1:27 / 1823 burned

Land, don't take on fuel, load up the clown car...

Fl400 TXKF to MQI 1:24 / land with 1139 lbs

Now this assumes that after you find out half way to Bermuda, Aliens bombed the runway and you continue the flight..., and take a look and land...it also assumes you guys forgot to fuel up in Bermuda.....it also assumes that in your haste to actually fly a real plane, you forgot to pull the power back for long range fuel, and just slam the throttles forward both ways.....
