I find it more amusing to see them get worked up because they can't explain things such as Polaris or certain flights
You mean how you throw insults my way but I am not allowed to return the favor?

I wasn't refering to high altitude observations Terry, and you know it. How high do you have to be to see teh curvature, btw?
EXACTLY!
All the "information" you get from your FE sites are based on observations from the ground. Try climbing Mount Everest and having a look.
But it doesn't matter. I've never seen Mount Everest, so that doesn't exist.

I said, make no sense on ball Earth. The logical fallacy was that your experience represents all possibilities. and I will show you examples.
The atmosphere alone would prevent it, and we would deal with perspective and viewing angle. Curvature would not be needed.
Did you even think that through.
Says who, this has already been explained, and proven. The perspective horizon is further away than where the curvature horizon should actually be. Conclusion, there is no curvature.
I did not lie about anything. Some flights don't make sense on ball Earth.
All flights and indeed all missile systems have to account for curvature of the earth to land on target.......wop wop....

I've seen the curvature. I've been high enough (altitude wise). But you won't believe me because "you've not seen it, so it's not true".
I guess Donald Trump doesn't exist. I've never seen him.

You personally saw the curvature?
So what altitude was it?
Oh and I think you are confusing refraction, which can push what you can see a bit further out due to a mirage effect .. with there being no curvature. No curvature you should be able to see 10x, 100x further .. you can't.

I just told this has already been demonstrated, in this thread, with calculations that took refraction into account. I just posted an example. Sofar you have all ignored this for days.

Terry, you suck at this, you know that right.
