Here's a fun thought exercise:

A flight from New York to London covers 3,459 miles of distance.

The amount of Earth curvature drop based on the official globe measurements for that distance = 1,298 miles.

An SR-71 Blackbird has been recorded making this 🇺🇸➡️🇬🇧 trip in ~2 hours.

Over the course of that flight, the plane would have to drop STRAIGHT DOWN 650 miles every hour.

That's 10 miles per minute.

Or approximately1 mile every 6 seconds.

🤔🤔🤔

You can ask any high-speed jet pilot, or any pilot for that matter, if they have to dip their noses down to follow this "curve" as they fly. They'll all look at you funny, as this is a silly question. Of course they don't.

Tell me: Does this make sense to you? Are these hundreds of miles of downward drop what you feel or experience during international flights...or is there perhaps something very fishy going on here? #FlatEarth
