I'm currently @ 30-13.9N 133-41E, 4 APR 42, just 168nm SSE of Japanese Island of Shikoku. Although the clock is showing 0953, real local time for my location is 0553 GMT = 2053. Dawn just broke (red light just went out at center of sun on horizon.

The clock in game is showing 0953 ( +11 (X Ray timezone)) (using WWII phonetic alphabet)
Sun Rise for my location is 0553 ( -9 (Item timezone))
GMT 2053

Van's sun Almanac shows SR for 30°N for 4APR as 0546. I missed it by 7 minutes. Those 7 min. puts me ~106nm South of my known position.
