Depends how long the javelin is in the air: even for top throwers, it is usually less than 2 seconds in the air. Height is more determinant of its air time than distance itself, although there is basically an optimum height angle for gaining maximum distance, depending on the specific conditions - wind direction and strength, atmospheric air pressure and humidity.
If you are including the time taken for 'run-up' before delivery, you need to add another 4 or 5 seconds or so - depending on the method used by the thrower to gain momentum, allow for body twist and use of personal psyche methods.
