Good, at last, a pilot.

Do you believe NASA’s formula for the curvature of the earth?

If so, why are not able to see it with our own eyes? And why don’t gyroscopes on airplanes account for the curve? (The math says to fly you’d have to be nosing the plane downward to adjust for the curve every thirty seconds).

Please explain without using fish-eye lens photos.

I just flew over the US. Saw nada sign of curvature. Nada.

As I am a Christian and the lack of naked-eye evidence, as well as what philman_36 discusses about the Bible are very strong arguments, as opposed to climate-change loving, Islam-loving NASA...

Not a pilot, a passenger. Read it again.

I watched out the plane window.

Hang on, I am not nor was a pilot.

When I said I flew in and out several times, I was appointed a COMSEC courier and flew back and forth on the weekly USAF C-141 flight from Woomera to Hickam AFB Hawaii several times.

I call anyone who says Australia isn’t real full of it, but that’s all.

I do believe the Earth is spherical so yes, those who says it’s flat are crazy in my opinion.

Sue me.

kosciusko51, yes, I saw the Southern Cross, the star Canopus, and a host of brilliant stars in the sky arranged in constellations I never saw before. In the very dry desert air of the Outback, the stars are very prominent. The first thing I noticed was Orion was upside down!
