Stir, you sound like an A-10 kind of guy. Best mission to fly.

Ok, made it to Bangkok in 15 hrs. 21 mins.
I'm enroute back to LAX using a GPS flight path, which still used the arc towards the North Pole, but not as pronounced. It's estimated at 14 hrs. 1 min. I'm using real world weather, so I don't know if that estimate take Wx into account.
I'll have to do one more tomorrow using my own dead reckoning from LAX to BKK to see if a straight flight path is faster.
I'm simming at 16x so it doesn't take that long, about an hour, until I'm on approach, then that takes another hour. Probably can't do both legs tonight.
This will prove nothing, but I'm knee deep in the shite now.
