The Flat Earth Disinformation Campaign

Then explain how an emergency landing of the flight from Indonesia to L.A. happened in Alaska.

Can you provide more information about this flight? Are you talking about this flight? From Hong Kong?

Here's a flight from Sumatra.

Here's a vid about 6 flights making an emergency landing that doesn't make sense on a globe. The guy uses a globe so it shows the great circle routes and it still doesn't make sense. It does make complete sense on the flat map though.




I am aware that there are also a few flights that don't seem to make sense on the flat map.

sigh - he does not use " great circle routes " - that is clear from his lines on the globe

a reply to: ignorant_ape

Oh really, he drew the shortest route between two points on a globe. Are you suggesting that those planes were not flying the shortest route between two points on a globe?

Furthermore, with one of these flights for instance, they had an emergency at one third of the flight, the emergency landing would still not make sense.

a reply to: AstralAvenger

no - he is drawing "straight" lines - not great circles - do you even have a clue whats being discussed here ?

I don't think you have.

A "great circle route" is the representation of the shortest route, or a "straight line", between two points on a globe, on a 2d map of globe Earth.

A "straight" line, or the shortest route between two points on the Globe, is what he drawed, and this is the route planes supposedly fly on globe Earth.

I mean a globe is a 1 on 1 representation of our planet right?

a reply to: AstralAvenger

so utterly wrong - it hurts

a reply to: ignorant_ape

But you are not able to point out the supposed flaw?

a reply to: ignorant_ape

How would you draw a great circle route on a globe that is an accurate representation of our planet Earth?

a reply to: AstralAvenger

i have pointed out the obvious flaw - that the lines he draws follow the circles of longitude - ergo they are not great circle routes

a reply to: AstralAvenger

very easily - using skills you clearly do not possess

A "great circle route" is the representation of the shortest route, or a "straight line", between two points on a globe, on a 2d map of globe Earth.

Ok, let me rephrase that.

A great circle route is the shortest route between two point on a globe.

What I meant to say is that the curved line that is being used on 2d maps of the globe represent this route on a globe.

oh - and just for context - what was your ATS user name - before your last ban ?

BS, he drew the shortest lines between two points. Don't make stuff up.

The skill of drawing the shortest route between two points on a globe? It doesn't require skills, just a piece of string and a pencil.

when I see verifiable evidence of one of the many "ends" as a flat Earth would have, I will be it's biggest supporter. Until then, I will remain skeptical and place this theory just below chemtrails on the "possibility list".

The very fact that nobody has evidence of an end, and they get really angry when you ask for proof of such thing, goes a long way to showing what the FE exercise really is. (proof that some can debate better than others)

show me proof we are on a spinning ball and i dont mean the CGI videos NASA and our government put out and want us to believe but i mean actual proof. I can go to the beach and look out for miles and no , zero curvature and that doesnt fit the math of ball earth. if we were spinning and moving we wouldnt need airplanes we could just use helos and hover and land were we needed to, wed have to be very fast though cuz we're spinning at what like 1000 mph lol yea thats believable

There is not one line on there that follows the circles of longitude.

There is only one line that sort of follows a line of LATITUDE, but that's only because the two points happened to be positioned like that. The rest clearly doesn't.

So besides lying you also can't tell the difference between latitude and longtitude.

a reply to: truthnlies

Not to mention no Thrust or Combustion can take place in the vacuum of space.

I think people get caught up in the whole "Flat Earth" concept and miss what FE is actually saying, it isn't saying there's an edge, or that we know anything about it except what historical documents detail.

What FE is saying is, is that we've been lied to about being on a sphere.

Any speculation as to what we're actually on, needs proof. The proof we have of the heliocentric model IS NOT true scientific proof.

The ramifications of FE scare people because it immediately validates the stories of various religions, demons and angels.

mea culpa - i admit " longitude was a typo "

but his lines are still not great circles
