Hello guys,
As you know that i'm working on world map and have enought experience about fliying times and distances.
I calculated the connection about flight time and distances as follow:
Maximum value of distance is fliying time / 1,306.
Oppositely if we want to calculate fliying time as estimate, we should use this formula as a good estimate:
fliying time = distance x 1,306.
You can use this formula for calculate your fliying time to anywhere.
Anyway.
For example:
We know Europe is about almost true so i'll use a distance from Europe as an example:
Istanbul to paris shown on google as: 2.271 kms
It takes about 3 hours.
2.271 kms takes 3 hours. so the ratio is 3 / 2.271 = 1,32
another example new york to san fransisco. why do i select this destination because there is a lot of flying between them:
It has about 4123 kms distance and gets about 5:30 hours. Lets calculate the ratio:
5,5 / 4.123 = 1,33
As we see that the ratio about 1,32-1,33. I calculated it after about 200.000 fliying that 1,306 is a better estimate.
This means if you go 3.000 kms, you go about 4 hours.
If you go about 6.000 kms, you go about 8 hours.
Now.
There is an arror on round earth map about fliying times and proves the map is wrong:
From Japan To USA.
This is a fliying path:
From Japan to San Fransisco. Path is 8.702 and gets about 8:30 hours.
Lets calculate the ratio:
ratio = 8,50 / 8.702 =
0,97 This means plane fliying with a speed higher than 1.000 kms that planes don't do that. This is impossible for average speed of planes.
Lets calculate the true distance according to this flying time:
8,50 / 1,306 = 6.500 kms. About 1200 kms closer than shown!
Tokyo is closer than shown on the map to the USA !
