Approach
The nearest quantum point on Hurston is Picker's Field. From there it is 386.4 km on the shortest route (great circle) or 388.7 km on a fixed compass heading of 124.5 degrees. At 250 m/s and 2 km altitude that works out to roughly 26 minutes of flight time. The great circle is shorter but needs constant correction; on the rhumb line you hold one heading.
