Flight Paths

THE FLIGHT PATH LHR TO SYD IS CALLED EASTERN HEMISPHERE (EH) ROUTE BUT IF ITS LHR- ANY JAPNESE OR KOREAN CITY -SYD IT IS CALLED TRANS SIBERIAN (TS) ROUTE. SINCE THE WORLD IS ROUND WE CAN FLY EVEN CROSSING BOTH ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC OCEANS AND THE ROUTE WILL BE CALLED ATLANTIC PACIFIC (AT) ROUTE IT IS BETTER NOT TO TRAVEL VIA AP ROUTE.

The flight path From Sydney to Johannesburg is over the the edges of the South Pole.

The flight path depends on winds (and weather).

It never goes as far as the South Pole, but the flight route from Sydney to Johannesburg often does go almost to the edge of Antarctica where the jet stream is not quite as strong. The sea ice around the edge of Antarctica can occasionally be visible from the plane (especially in July in August when it is thickest).

The route from Johannesburg to Sydney stays further North to stay with the jet stream (which is now the same direction and therefore beneficial), and the flying time is much less in this direction.

South African airways provides one direct flight from Johannesburg to New York and vice versa. This flight requires a stop over in Dakar for refueling, but there is no plane change and the stop is usually less than an hour.

In addition, South African airways provides a direct flight from Jo'burg to Washington, DC (also with the Dakar pit stop).

I add the this pit stop in dakar is due , as Patrick Smith mentionned in his book , to the fact that johanessburg is at some elevation , so a long distance for takeoff is needed for a fully loaded aircraft, hence breaking the flight in two trips to refuel in dakar.

Flight paths should be due west but for some odd reason they fly in what looks like a lowercase 'n' on the map.

No. I've not heard of any flights that go directly between Washington DC and Johannesburg but I imagine the flight will fly east over the Atlantic, then so a sharp curve southeast towards the Canary Islands and West Africa, then I think the flight will turn south over Nigeria and then head directly south to Johannesburg.

No, this entirely depends on air traffic and weather conditions.

You are most likely to fly over the Scottish mountains on a flight from London Heathrow to Aberdeen Scotland.

If you look at a map you will see that Dubai is on the Persian Gulf near the Strait of Hormuz. Draw a straight line to London and you will cross Germany. So I would say that you would cross Germany because that is the most direct route.

Look at www.lhr.wwatc.com. The flight location is presented at real time.

Head over the North Sea, Denmark, Sweden, Finland (North of Helsinki), Siberian Russia then south to Narita.

Kent (UK), Belgium, Germany, Austria, Hungary and Romania.

While a nose cone can either reduce or add drag, it provides a minimal amount of stability to the rocket' flight path. The fins are the most critical component for stabilizing a rocket's flight path; that's where your focus should be.

Southeast over the Alps and the Mediterranean Sea into Egypt

A flight from London Heathrow to Las Vegan McCarran Airport will turn north and fly towards Blackpool, then over the Isle of Man, then over the northern edge of Northern Ireland, then the plane will pass just south of Iceland and over the tip of Greenland, then the flight will finally head southwest over northern Canada, the northern states of the USA and into Las Vegas.

I don't know the exact flight path, but maybe you can go to Google Earth and draw a straight line between the two cities. I think this should be a good estimation. When I flew from Chicago and Washington, DC to Beijing and Shanghai, we flew above Alaska and down through Russia.

Amber 338 airway

You would usually fly to Amsterdam and transfer from there.

In terms of the traditional English counties, a direct line between London Heathrow Airport and Newcastle International Airport would take you over Middlesex, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Northamptonshire, Rutland, Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire, Yorkshire, County Durham, and Northumberland. (But remember that flights seldom follow a dead straight line!)

A flight from LA to London will fly northeast towards the northern states of the USA, then over much of northern Canada, then over Greenland then Iceland, the flight will then head southwest towards the southwest tip of Scotland, then the plane will turn south over the Lake District towards Manchester, the flight will then finally head towards Birmingham before landing in London.

A flight from Washington DC to Vienna will fly over much of the north Atlantic Ocean, then the plane would fly over the British Isles, flying over souther Ireland, south Wales and southern England (passing directly over London), the plane will then head southeast over Kent, England before heading to the continent. The flight would then cross the English channel and fly over Belgium, southern Germany (passing Frankfurt), then the plane will fly close to the Czech border before descending into Vienna, Austria.

Exact routings between London and Orlando vary according to air traffic restrictions, weather conditions etc. A typical routing would be as follows: # After take off the aircraft heads South West towards Southhamton and the Isle of Wight. # It then follows the South Coast towards Devon before heading slightly North towards and then following West the Bristol Channel. # At this point the aircraft gets its transatlantic clearance which takes it West over the Atlantic towards New Foundland passing to the South of Ireland. The transatlantic part of the flight normally takes around 4 1/2 to 5 hours. # The aircraft then heads down the Eastern Seaboard of Canada and then the United States. Although there is very little to see on flights between the UK and North America the right side of the plane usually offers more to see. Major cities that the aircraft will pass close to include Boston, New York and Washington. Flight time is usually around 9 hours. On leaving the UK the aircraft may be routed towards Wales and then over Ireland but in almost all circumstances the plane will enter North America around New Foundland. Aircraft going to the West Coast will usually cross the Atlantic further North often crossing Greenland. Flights destined for the East Coast follow the same route as that to Orlando. Owing to time zones flights between Europe and North America tend to be during the day and North America to Europe flights are usually at night. Eastbound flights are around an hour shorter than Westbound ones owing to the jetstream assisting the plane.

The earth is flatter in the polar region. So, the distance from Dubai to Atlanta is shorter if the plane goes over the poles than if it goes around the equator.

The flight path varies dramatically, I've seen the planes take 4 routes:

The typical flight path is over the Yorkshire dales and Central Scotland. The second most common route is heading north towards Manchester and then turning northwest towards Belfast. The third most common route is heading west over the Brecon Beacons in Wales then northwest to Dublin. Although very rare and not used very often, the planes head directly north taking them over York, Newcastle, the North Sea and Aberdeenshire.
