That isn't really a question. Do you mean how long will it take each to get to their destinations? If that is the case, get the distance from BWI to both ATL and BOS. If you're answering this as a 5th grade math problem just divide the distance by the speed and that'll give you how many hours. Keep in mind 2.5 hours is 2 hours and 30 minutes not 2 hours and 50 minutes.

If you are trying to answer this question with any realism or complexity, you'll need to know the cruise climb speed, altitude being climbed to, take into consideration aircraft are limited to 200 knots within those airports airspace and to 250 knots below 10,000 feet and plug that into the calcutation.

I agree, this isn't a question. There is no missing information.

Depends. First we need to know one very important factor. What are the tow planes towing?
