A question for FE folks: what would be 3 of the most compelling things (aside from any divine enlightenment) that would flip you from FE to GE?

I'd love to go back to being a blissfully ignorant globetard, for better or for worse, however, I wasn't prideful enough to dismiss FE out of hand. Oh well...

Abu Dhabi to Fort Worth, Texas Flight Path
This graphic shows the path of a flight from Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates to Fort Worth, Texas, USA. The top graphic shows how the flight appears as it is tracked on a globe map. The bottom graphic shows how the flight path would look on a flat earth map. As you can see, the flight path on the ball earth map appears to take a strange northern loop and pass unnecessarily over land in the high northern latitudes. Why not just go in a straight line? On the flat earth map, however, the flight path going over land in the northern latitudes makes perfect sense, as it is a straight line from point A to point B.

Abu Dhabi to Ft. Worth Texas Flight Path

If Earth was a ball, and Antarctica was too cold to fly over, the only logical way to fly from Sydney to Santiago would be a straight shot over the Pacific staying in the Southern hemisphere the entire way. Re-fueling could be done in New Zealand or other Southern hemisphere destinations along the way if absolutely necessary. In actual fact, however, Santiago-Sydney flights go into the Northern hemisphere making stop-overs at LAX and other North American airports before continuing back down to the Southern hemisphere. Such ridiculously wayward detours make no sense on the globe but make perfect sense and form nearly straight lines when shown on a flat Earth map.”— Eric Dubay 200 proofs Earth not a Spinning Ball

“On a ball-Earth, Johannesburg, South Africa to Perth, Australia should be a straight shot over the Indian Ocean with convenient re-fueling possibilities on Mauritus or Madagascar. In actual practice, however, most Johannesburg to Perth flights curiously stop over either in Dubai, Hong Kong or Malaysia all of which make no sense on the ball, but are completely understandable when mapped on a flat Earth.”—Ibid

“On a ball-Earth Johannesburg, South Africa to Sao Paolo, Brazil should be a quick straight shot along the 25th Southern latitude, but instead nearly every flight makes a re- fueling stop at the 50th degree North latitude in London first! The only reason such a ridiculous stop-over works in reality is because the Earth is flat.” ~ Ibid

According to the Federal Aviation Association, no air flights have gone the much shorter routes over the Arctic and Antarctic due to cold weather effecting flights as well as having to effect rescue over such inhabited areas (what about the oceans?!). Another reason that is given is that airlines would be required to carry special survival equipment (jackets, boots?), even though thousands of hours of flight time and fuel consumption would be saved by going direct instead of Westward and Eastward directions.
“If Earth was a ball there are several flights in the Southern hemisphere which would have their quickest, straightest path over the Antarctic continent such as Santiago, Chile to Sydney, Australia. Instead of taking the shortest, quickest route in a straight line over Antarctica, all such flights detour all manner of directions away from Antarctica instead claiming the temperatures too cold for airplane travel! Considering the fact that there are plenty of flights to/from/over Antarctica, and NASA claims to have technology keeping them in conditions far colder (and far hotter) than any experienced on Earth, such an excuse is clearly just an excuse, and these flights aren’t made because they are impossible.”

Is that top one actually a real picture from some flight tracker? If so, that about cements it. There's zero reason to go up there, and the usual excuses evaporate, such as staying closer to land or passing near major cities, etc.

Yes, I've looked for such flights and there are none to be found.

Shows how much you know. That's the same flight patch, just 2 different representations of the map. One is a circular map, the other rectangular. That's how the flight would look plotted on a rectangular map of a globe. You can see both flight paths go across the arctic.

Year ago when I searched for flights from the southern tip of Africa to the southern tip of South America, I did find two such flights. One had a stopover in Dubai and the other had a stopover in London. Makes absolutely no sense on globe earth, but makes perfect sense of FE map.

found this on an old CI post

No, it shows that you're a much bigger dummy that I had thought. OBVIOUSLY this represents the same path on two different projections or models. But the flight path makes zero sense on a globe projection but makes perfect sense on a flat one. NOBODY would fly up to near the North Pole on a globe to make that flight from Dubai to Texas. You evidently missed the entire point. WHY would a path "go across the arctic" on a globe? Answer: it wouldn't. Both origin and destination appear to be close to the same latitude, so you'd simply follow the latitude lines all the way across, probably to Senegal, then across the Atlantic, and on to Texas.

I agree Ladislaus, he completely missed the point and was utterly confused. These are the kind of problems, confusions, bad thinking, illogic, etc. that most Globers hold within them. It's not their fault though, it's what they were taught. They weren't taught to think for themselves at any point in their public school education.

If the flight path looked like the RED paths on this graphic (shown in both projections), it would be a piece of evidence for Globe Earth.

But if the earth is in fact flat, there is no "shortcut" across the globe. The shortest path between two places is a STRAIGHT LINE especially as the bird (or airplane) flies.

The path taken by an airplane is going to be the shortest path, get it? If you start out by heading north to reach a destination that's *supposed to be* in the East, according to the Globe model, that's a huge red flag.

TL;DR: Flat Earth confirmed.

Latitude doesn't matter, distance and safe emergency landing sites do.

You guys don't seem to understand how globes work. You don't have to fly east to arrive at an eastern destination. Far enough north, and it may be faster to fly north and south to it. I am 100% thinking for myself right now as I'm trying to understand why you don't comprehend globes.

Are you serious? Look at the picture attached to this post. Tell me which route is quicker. The dark red line, or the other one?

The north then south route is clearly "the scenic route" in the upper picture, the "Globe Earth" scenario.
Yes, they chose to fly north through the arctic that's because the earth is Flat like in the bottom picture! Get it?

In a Globe scenario (see top picture) flying north then south being shorter than a straight line between A and B would be insanity.
Compare the green upside-down U path, with the dark red SHORTCUT. Which one is shorter? The airlines went with the upside down U for some reason. Apparently the other isn't possible, because we're not living on a Globe.

Has anyone used a compass in the "southern hemisphere"? Surely someone on CI lives in Australia or some such southerly location. Which way does the compass point? Why is there no such thing as "magnetic south"?

Those maps are 2 different 2D representations of a 3D image. Changes in scale must be considered. It's like drawing a picture of a sunset. The piece of paper you draw on is only 8"x11", but the foreground is drawn on the real life scale of inches representing feet, while the background transitions into millimeters equaling miles. It's about perspective and how to render a 3D object in 2D.

Don't mind the rest of this video, which is filled with a bunch of theories and math that likely just represents non-real things, but this 1 minute section helps to show how maps can be distorted depending on how you want to graph them.
15:02 to 15:52

Actually, looking further into the video demonstrates how different perspectives or ways of plotting the same 3D (or in their case 4D) things is important depending on the goal. I used to have doubts regarding what scientists said about black holes as if infinite limits would be reached and nothing could truly enter past the event horizon, which is impossible, because if a black hole exists, stuff must be able to get inside. By changing the orientation of their graph, it became possible to plot a path into a black hole. It's kind of like drawing a picture of the horizon, where you can only see so far until everything gets infinitely small VS an overhead view where you can see everything.
