Chillin' in Jilin


Congratulations, you do not have any brain damage from your surgery, and you've joined your fellow agents on the mission to save the Amur Leopard! First, you need to find out where the FAMPO agents are meeting. You've intercepted their radio transmissions and overheard the following conversations:
8:47 am:  "Hi Roger, I'm leaving Yanbian right now."
8:47 am:  "Hi Martin, I just took off in my plane right now as well from Tonghua!"
9:17 am:  "Hi Roger.  I'm flying at a constant speed of [transmission garbled].  How fast are you going?" 
9:17 am:  "Hi Martin.  I'm flying exactly 24 km/h faster than you!  It must be because I've got the wind behind me!"
9:37 am:  "Hi Roger.  I just touched down on the runway and I see another FAMPO plane on the other runway!  Is that you?"
9:37 am:  "Hi Martin.  Yes, it's me.  I can't believe we touched down at the same time! This portends good fortune for our mission!"
Since you know that Yanbian is 320 km from Tonghua and they traveled toward each other in a straight line, you can figure out where they are meeting! How far from Tonghua toward Yanbian did they meet?
