How can you fly around the world on a plane if the earth is flat?

Can someone please explain this to me?

They either circumnavigate the world instead, or a couple of people have the idea that the world is surrounded by 'aether' which, when contacted, does odd things to space and teleports you to the far side of the world. (We're still waiting for an actual explanation of how that works).

Wasn't  there something in their silly wiki about navigation instruments being faulty and taking you on a curved route around the "planet"?

Yet another one of the numerous things that has yet to be explained in a logical, sensible fashion that doesn't rely on magic or faulty equipment on the thousands of aircraft flying around the globe daily.

How often do you think planes circumnavigate the earth?

By flying around the globe I meant flights in general and was reffering to the faulty equipment explanation of global circumnavigation by flight.

How do you run around your neighborhood?

How do you run around your neighborhood?

I don't, but what's your point? Going in circles? Let me put it this way, I can reach the house accross the street in a straight line but I could also go AROUND the block and come back to where I startd without going over the same place twice.

instantaneous aetheric transmission. the aetheric currents transport you to the far side of the earth when you meet the border.

the fact round earthers say anything that doesn't fit into their narrow fantasy has to be 'magic' says it all, really. you can't trust anyone that closed minded.

So an invisible, made up, substance transports you from one side of the world to the other and we're not supposed to call that magic?

Interesting.

Light too there Jrowe, they will ask you how they see the other side.
I have a silly question though.  If by accident you have one foot on one side of the barrier and the other on the other side, are you actually 2 people for that time or one very, unknowingly" elongated one.

you would essentially be in two places at once. you'd stand near the border one side, be transported, and be standing the other. if you remain in close proximity, you'd end up on the original side too. you'd be one person, but in two places at once.

Where is the evidence for this magical "instantaneous aetheric barrier"? Did you simply just make it up when you realized your flat earth model has so major flaws? Why don't other planets have this barrier? Oh yeah, because THEY ARE ALL SPHERES! What makes you think that of the trillions among gazillions of planets in our universe, the earth is special and it is flat.
Think.

there is observational evidence.
other planets did not come into being the same way as the earth. aether caused the earth to be attracted into a flat disk, and the whirlpools generated by it then created several round objects: the sun, moon, stars and planets.

The word theory is used around here far too loosely.

this matches what we see of the world, i have personal experience of the aether, and we see its effects constantly. this is all very simple.

Oh goodie! Time to see some actual evidence! There are many ways he could cleverly come up with actual instances where the existence of aether is debatable.
We could get an actual scientific (hypothesis, experiment, conclusion) debate going! I wonder how he will approach this.

einstein accepted the existence of aether, i suggest you do your research. 'luminiferous aether' has been disproven, but that is not the form any flat earther relies on.
we have observational evidence: we see the consequences of aether. i have suggested an experiment several times, but it is not an easy one to do.
you are the one saying i am wrong, it should be up to you to provide evidence for that. every part of my model matches with reality. you cannot reject it simply from arrogance.

Any consequences of aether aren't consequences of aether, but of gravity for example. Gravity is well-proven, aether is not.

Actually we can, we can simply not listen or reply to your statements and your theory will die with you. If you want the world to believe in your model you will have to prove it to be true in independently variable ways.

Please clarify what we witness? I am asking because you are making many claims, ALL of them need to be verified.

we witness that we are able to cross the equator, that we are pulled towards the earth's surface, that the sun and moon illuminate the earth in certain paths, that the moon is bright, that stars exist... are you denying any of that?
if you are intent on pushing your theory as preferable, when something as fundamental to it as gravity baffles even the most expert of scientists, you need to make a start at denying these observations. unless you can do that, my model is simply better.

Your model is only slightly less laughable than scepti's ice dome.

Gravity baffles scientist.........yet you want people to accept aether? Stop using Einstein as your prop for aether.....he didn't describe it or use it the same way you are. In his papers...it's something completely different than you're trying to make it.

i notice you fail to provide any evidence of your claim, and also ignore all of what i have given as evidence of aether.
if you're not going to be serious, stop posting.
