Time evolution of fraction of ejected FFPs within 10 pc projected sky distance from the WD. Shown is the likelihood to find a WD-kick-ejected FFP within 10 pc projected distance on the sky of its former host. After 8 Myr, about 50% of the ejected FFPs remain within this region, which drops to 10% after about 20 Myr.
