The Flat Earth

[johnnytodd]

Where have you got that bollocks from?

you can check anytime

 

[Gladders]

you can check anytime

Just checked and those two at the bottom on the live map flying between Austrailia and South Africa and are a bit fucked if your map of the flat Earth is accurate, not to mention those flying from Europe to Brazil, and I'm surprised I'm still alive with my three trips to the Falklands Islands as we certainly would find it impossible to follow land from the Ascension Islands to the Falklands on your map.

Flight radar's tracking is based on land based radar. So when you go over the sea, they lose you in that part of the world.

LOL transpolar flights are banned thanks to NASA.....funny they only banned them when planes become good enough to achieve it.

 

[johnnytodd]

wonder which fligh tpath they take from Auckland to Rekyavik.........LOL

 

[silkyman]

Transpolar routes are banned?

There's flights over both the north and south polar regions.

It's like talking to a side of pork, really thick pork.

 

[silkyman]

I hope, for humanity's sake, that he's just an ineffectual troll.

But there are plenty of videos on that there YouTube of people actually seeming to believe this shit.

North yes but not south, no flight ever over antartic.............apparently it's too cold..........LOL yet it's not in the summer it's fine

ahh great argument put forward thanks.........with no evidence whatsoever...........LOL

You're welcome X

A straight line from A (N50° W30°) is drawn on a Lamberts conformal conic chart to B (N50° E30°), with standard parallels at N46° and N54°. Flying from A to B, what is the great circle track while passing B?

If you'd asked me that in 2009 and I had any idea what a Lamberts conformal conic chart is I might have a chance :-D

 

[SALTIRE]

Got to hand it to Toddles on this one, he's got 5 pages out of this shit so far!

If the earth is flat, how did Martina curve that ball past Cech?

 

[silkyman]

North yes but not south, no flight ever over antartic.............apparently it's too cold..........LOL yet it's not in the summer it's fine

Because there is no need for one. From Sydney, they skim the South Pole heading for South America and South Africa. Directly over the pole is only the middle of the Atlantic. If only they would open up that VITAL Tahiti to Santiago flight path.

i sense you doubt the earth is flat Salty?

 

[johnnytodd]

Amazing how close we came to truth in 1946 when the UN decided not to tell the world it was a flat earth. Simply because Roosevelt died and it was him who was going to be the president of the UN and the world in essence.

They used the flat earth map in any case.

Why are 'they' keeping this conspiracy going? What's the benefit to them?

i'd say money is one, just answer me this how the hell do you land a plane on a runway which is spinning at 1000mph as NASA say?

 

[johnnytodd]

If Earth were truly constantly spinning Eastwards at over 1000mph, during the Red Bull stratosphere dive, Felix Baumgartner, spending 3 hours ascending over New Mexico, should have landed 2500 miles West into the Pacific Ocean but instead landed a few dozen miles East of the take-off point.

 

[johnnytodd]

Not at all, I got to talk about navigation and great circle sailing. Not done that for a long time

i missed this post can you tell me if this is correct -

Ship captains in navigating great distances at sea never need to factor the supposed curvature of the Earth into their calculations. Both Plane Sailing and Great Circle Sailing, the most popular navigation methods, use plane, not spherical trigonometry, making all mathematical calculations on the assumption that the Earth is perfectly flat.

If the Earth were in fact a sphere, such an errant assumption would lead to constant glaring inaccuracies. Plane Sailing has worked perfectly fine in both theory and practice for thousands of years, however, and plane trigonometry has time and again proven more accurate than spherical trigonometry in determining distances across the oceans.

Wonder why no one has ever tried a North / South circumnavigation of the earth?Should have been tried by know if the earth is indeed a globe surely?..............or the earth is flat !

Money how? Who is making this money?

And, what? Are you actually thick? That's like something a four year old would ask.

Governments make the money.............i am trying to keep it simple as not one person has comeback with an explanation to my points, here is another.

The Statue of Liberty in New York stands 326 feet above sea level and on a clear day can be seen as far as 60 miles away. If the Earth were a globe, that would put Lady Liberty at an impossible 2,074 feet below the horizon if NASA's 8 inch squared by the distance per mile curvature of the earth is correct.

 

[johnnytodd]

Viewed from a globe/ball-Earth, Polaris, situated directly over the North Pole, should not be visible anywhere in the Southern hemisphere. For Polaris to be seen from the Southern hemisphere of a globular Earth, the observer would have to be somehow looking “through the globe,” and miles of land and sea would have to be transparent. Polaris can be seen, however, up to over 20 degrees South latitude.

Cultures the world over throughout history have all described and purported the existence of a geocentric, stationary flat Earth. Egyptians, Indians, Mayans, Chinese, Native Americans and literally every ancient civilization on Earth had a geocentric flat-Earth cosmology. Before Pythagoras, the idea of a spinning ball-Earth was non-existent and even after Pythagoras it remained an obscure minority view until 2000 years later when Copernicus began reviving the heliocentric theory.

From Pythagoras to Copernicus, Galileo and Newton, to modern astronauts like Aldrin, Armstrong and Collins, to director of NASA and Grand Commander of the 33rd degree C. Fred Kleinknecht, the founding fathers of the spinning ball mythos have all been Freemasons! The fact that so many members of this, the largest and oldest secret society in existence have all been co-conspirators bringing about this literal “planetary revolution” is beyond the possibility of coincidence and provides proof of organized collusion in creating and maintaining this multi-generational deception.

How would faking a globe make a single penny more for the government? Without a plausible reason, there is no conspiracy.

And from 60 miles away, the Statue of Liberty would be about half a millimetre high. How could you perceive that against a backdrop of, well, anything? It's not visible from 60 miles away, is the point.

And if we're going 'polar Stars' how come people living in southern Chile see the same star fields as people in Tazmania, despite being on opposite sides of the disc?

That's just full on 'tinfoilhattery'

It's about as valid as 'God exists because some scientists believe in God'

or as valid as ' NASA' says so? never mind what your eyes see or common sense ehh?
