Convert excel formula for time conversion in power query

Hi, community!  I have a query where I need to add a custom column to match what my excel spreadsheet does, the formula is:

 

IF(MOD(24*MOD(TEXT([#"Land Time (Military Time)"],"00\:00")-TEXT([#"Take Off Time (Military Time)"],"00\:00"),1),1)<0.6,24*MOD(TEXT([#"Land Time (Military Time)"],"00\:00")-TEXT([#"Take Off Time (Military Time)"],"00\:00"),1),((1440*MOD(TEXT([#"Land Time (Military Time)"],"00\:00")-TEXT([#"Take Off Time (Military Time)"],"00\:00"),1))-1)/60))

 

Is this easy to convert to a Power Query expression?
