Flight Paths

Hello,

I took this route about three years ago on United. You will fly over much of Canada and lower Alaska. You will see a great deal of the Aleutian islands, swamps, lakes, and icebergs, even in summer. After that you will fly over sparse coastal Islands of Japan and touchdown in Narita. Watch your $$$ in Japan. It goes fast but have fun. It's a trip of a lifetime that you're never going to forget!!!

A flight from London to Tokyo will fly over eastern England (Norfolk), the North Sea, much of Scandinavia, then over the north of Russia (Siberia), then over the northeast tip of China before heading into Japan.

You would probably need to fly via Zurich. The best and cheapest way would be by Swiss Air. NRT (Tokyo) to ZRH (Zurich) would be 12 Hours and 50 Minutes by LX 169. From there, it is a Code share aircraft with Scandinavian Airlines; LX 4662 to CPH (Copenhagen) which is 1 Hour and 45 Minutes. Hence, the total flying time is 14 Hours and 35 Minutes. This answer is based on actual commercial flight timings and schedules as per today. This answer is NOT based on charters or private aircrafts. This answer does NOT include wait times, check in time gaps etc and is only actual flying time.

The flight path from Calgary to Paris typically takes a northeast route across Canada, often passing over the northern United States before crossing the Atlantic Ocean. Depending on the specific flight, it may navigate through airspace over Greenland or the eastern coast of Canada. The total distance is approximately 7,000 kilometers (about 4,350 miles), and flight durations usually range from 8 to 10 hours non-stop. However, many flights may have layovers, affecting the overall travel time.

Go to http://gc.kls2.com/ and it will show you. It lets you plot any route!!! Good Luck.

I've taken this flight twice. The flight path is north, over Canada, passing over Baffin Island, Greenland, Arctic Ocean and very nearly the North Pole. Then finally over Russia (Siberia), Mongolia and finally Beijing.

Flights from Heathrow to Bangkok can fly as far north as Siberia on the way and they can also fly as far south as the Alps in Europe.

Up north over Alaska

It would fly over Ireland, heading northwest, then over the north of the Atlantic Ocean, coming in towards Newfoundland in Canada and then down the east coast of the United States towards Florida.

A flight from London to Cape Town will fly over Sussex, England then over the South Coast before crossing the English Channel, then the flight will fly over western France, the Pyrenees (passing close to Andorra), then over eastern Spain then over the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean, then the plane will fly over Gibraltar before reaching the African continent. Once the plane reaches the African continent, it will fly over much of the Sahara Desert (passing over the Hoggar mountains in southern Algeria), then over Niger, the Sahel region and then over Nigeria. The flight will then fly towards Sao Tome and Principe crossing the Equator , then over Angola, Namibia before coming into South Africa and descending into Cape Town.

Drag is one of the four forces applicable to a flying aircraft: thrust, drag, lift and weight. Drag is the amount of resistance to forward motion caused by a solid body moving through a fluid (air is considered a fluid for the purpose of aerodynamics).

The easiest way to feel the effect of drag is to stick one's arm out a car window while it's moving. First do it palm-down (horizontal), and then palm-forward (vertical). The force, known as "drag", pushing the arm backward increases substantially when the palm is vertical. That force is the same effect that an aircraft in flight experiences due to the frontal area of its airframe forcing its way through the air.

The science of aerodynamics seeks to minimize the drag through streamlining and other design factors, since drag wastes fuel, but it is physically impossible to elimnate it.

A good way to track Santa is NORAD. Visit the link below.

It's called 'flaring to a landing,' where the nose of the aircraft is brought up, raising angle of attack, lowering airspeed, until the main gear gently touch down on the runway. When speaking exclusively of that portion of the landing path, an aircraft is said to be 'flaring' or 'in the flair.'

Belgium, Germany, Communist States, Hungary, Romania, Turkey, Middle East then to Bangalore.

54997 km

When you get to L.A., catch a plane. Otherwise it's going to be a 2,551 mile swim! Good luck :)

It's a 4000 mile one way trip. The question was what is the flight path a plane from Minneapolis would take to get to Honolulu. Good question, I'd like to know myself.

Flights found for Machester, England to Dalaman, Turkey are direct flights from Machester to Dalaman.

The Midlands

Show flight path from Calgary to Amsterdam

Glasgow-Greenland-Newfoundland(Labrador).

Yes. NORAD tracks him also.

There is no way of knowing the origin or destination of the 'plane. Extending the flight onwards would take it over France and there for mainland Europe, extending it back would take it over Ireland. There is no way of knowing if the are the origin and destination as it may have change course previously and may in the future.

A flight flying between these two locations will firstly fly north towards Central London, then further north over Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire towards Nottingham, then the flight will fly past Sheffield and then over much of the Pennine Mountains before crossing the Scottish border, after the plane crosses the border it will fly north over the Central belt of Scotland and then over much of the Highlands before descending into Inverness.

You can fly from London to San Francisco without flying over Scotland on the plane by flying from London to Portugal first. You might also fly from London to Paris and then from Paris to San Francisco.

Flights from London to New Zealand will either fly west stopping over in Los Angeles or they will fly east towards Singapore and then on to New Zealand.

If you are flying west - the flight will turn north after leaving London, heading towards Iceland and Greenland and then southwest into Canada after crossing the Atlantic, and then into the USA. Once the plane leaves Los Angeles, the flight will head southwest over the Pacific Ocean into New Zealand.

If you are heading East, you will fly northeast out of London, crossing northern Europe and much of Russia and then southeast over China before reaching Singapore, then from there the plane will fly over Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and across Australia to New Zealand.
