Flight Paths

The flight path from Los Angeles (LAX) to New York City (JFK or LGA) typically follows a northeastern trajectory across the United States. Airlines often navigate over key waypoints, including the Rocky Mountains and the Midwest, before approaching the East Coast. The flight typically takes around 5 to 6 hours, depending on wind conditions and the specific route taken. Additionally, pilots may adjust the flight path for air traffic control and weather conditions.

The flight path from Amsterdam Schiphol Airport (AMS) to Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) typically involves a direct route over Europe, passing through areas like Germany and Poland before crossing the airspace of Russia or Central Asia. The flight then continues over countries such as Kazakhstan and China before descending into Hong Kong. The exact trajectory can vary based on weather conditions, air traffic control, and specific airline routes. Overall, the journey covers a distance of approximately 11,000 kilometers and usually takes about 11 to 13 hours.

Sometimes, but most of the time it will be over northern France.

Yes, airplanes always fly into the wind. It decreases the length required to takeoff because the net airspeed over the wings is higher.

Logistically though, sometimes airports won't swap directions for a wind speed that's relatively small.

No. The flight path from London to Sri Lanka passes over Afghanistan and Pakistan, and curves round the western edge of India instead of over northern India and the Himalayas.

From Vancouver, the aircraft will take a NW heading after leaving Vancouver centre control and will continue NW and cross the International day line near between Alaska and Russia beening in contact with Anchorage centre and Transoceanic centre air control, after crossing the day line, the aircraft will take a SW heading pass Japan, in contact with Narita Radar and Kyoto Radar, then down pass the east coast of China ( dont know what radar) and thru the Taiwan Strait where the aircraft will contact Taipei Radar. and finally Hong Kong, usually the aircraft descends into Hong Kong with the STAR of A1 Elato Arrival.

There are no direct flights from Aberdeen to Vienna, Austria. You will need to fly to either London (Heathrow or Gatwick) or Amsterdam Schiphol airport which will usually take about 1 hour - 1 hour 10 minutes and from there you can catch a flight to Vienna which lasts about 2 hours. Overall the total time flying will be 3 hours and 10 minutes.

That will depend either on the distance or weather conditions, but I expect that the flight path passes over:

Kent (England),

Belgium,

Germany,

Austria,

Italy,

Croatia,

then over the Mediterranean sea towards Greece then towards Saudi Arabia.

It then produces lift due to wing configuration and can take off

A flight from Dunlin to Atlanta will fly west across Ireland, then over much of the Atlantic south of Greenland and Iceland, then over the northeastern United States before descending into Atlanta

Flights from London to NY pretty much go in a straight line

Flights from London to LA fly way north (too far north) on their westbound path.

Yes, it is usually quicker to fly from the US to the UK, as flights can take advantage of the jet stream which can cut 30 to 45 minutes of the flight time.
