A flight from Taiwan to Los Angeles might need to make a fuel stop in Alaska, because that's where the Great Circle route takes a flight from Taipei to Los Angeles - Along the southern edge of Alaska.

The sun doesn't set or rise - it just seems like it does because of perspective.

Are these two lines parallel?

All compasses point to the North Pole , even in what you think is the southern hemispere - do they point right threw the earth? There is no South pole.


yeah but you didnt answer me where does the sun go....

this is just proof of your retardation in not understanding that the flight route is the three dimensional path on the 2d surface - in reality - if you see the flight from directly above, it goes no where near Alaska on Ball earth :wacko:

Can you explain why Compasses all point to the North Pole even in Brazil - do you think they point right through the Earth?

Lol, you might need to read up on how compasses work: You know, science.

A compass points north because all magnets have two poles , a north pole and a south pole, and the north pole of one magnet is attracted to the south pole of another magnet. (You may have seen this demonstrated by a pair of simple bar magnets or refrigerator magnets pushed end to end.)

The Earth is a magnet that can interact with other magnets in this way, so the north end of a compass magnet is drawn to align with the Earth's magnetic field. Because the Earth's magnetic North Pole attracts the "north" ends of other magnets, it is technically the "South Pole" of our planet's magnetic field.

So if the magnet is always attracted to the north pole, but your in southern argentina - wouldn't it be pointing str up /or down depending on your perspective right through the earth - hmm ok... :wacko:
