Pigeon velocity calculator
Enter the distance and the times to get the velocity in metres per minute, yards per minute and km/h.
How pigeon velocity is worked out
Velocity is the distance flown divided by the time in the air. Fanciers usually give it in metres per minute (m/min) in Europe and yards per minute (ypm) in the UK and USA. A bird that flies 350 km in 5 hours has flown 350,000 metres in 300 minutes, which is 1,166.67 m/min.
Birds that stay out overnight
When a bird arrives on a later day, races normally take off the hours of darkness. Enter those hours in "Night hours to take off". Your race organisation's own rules decide the exact figure, and its calculated result is the official one.
