Why it works
The moving map introduces the aircraft near the main replay peak at 0:04.8–0:05.4, then makes each of five refueling stops a visible milestone. A persistent dashed route and icon system make the 60-second, one-shot journey easy to follow, while the 44-hour reveal at 0:56–1:00 gives the escalating distance a memorable scale.
