if you're using that as an actual argument, I don't know what to say
`from aéro- ‘air’ + Greek -planos ‘wandering’.`
planes follow the plane of flat earth
That's what they want you to think fire
mechanical gyroscopes work on flat earth, don't work on a globe
help keep the plane level
and give the pilot an ability to see the horizon without actually seeing it
Atmospheric refraction only makes things seem higher than they are, not lower.
air planes do need to keep turning to go due west or due east, because that does curve like a circle around flat earth
peripláni̱si̱ = wandering

planétés -- or aka "planet" = (Wandering Star)

on a ball they wouldn't need to keep turning, they could just go due west or due east and stay on that course
without constantly course correcting
slow down a little.
the fact is we live on a flat earth where all directions are south
You're avoiding refraction
no matter where you head, your heading south if you stay going in that same direction
compass points east or west, keep going in that direction and it will turn south eventually as you keep going in that same direction
why, because you live on a flat earth and not a globe
ice wall, antartica blocking all southern exits
You're still avoiding refraction :/
but not until we finish with refraction
you are moving slow like a snail
being slow doesn't prove your point
you have extremely smart people, smarter than me, saying that they have found no curve
I'm not saying it does, I'm waiting for you to give me evidence against "atmospheric refraction makes things appear higher, not lower" using accurate explanations of how refraction works
who cares what direction stuff appears
it doesn't matter what refraction is doing vs reality
we are concerned about the actual shape of the planet, not how light bends
I do
it doesn't matter, we are past that
No we're not.
the fact is the ship isn't going over the horizon, its all flat
okay?
its provable
and you being slow doesn't make you right
why is it below the horizon then?
Optics
Oh?
please explain :)
