if you're using that as an actual argument, I don't know what to say

2018-09-22 11:57:11 UTC  

`from aéro- ‘air’ + Greek -planos ‘wandering’.`

2018-09-22 11:57:24 UTC  

planes follow the plane of flat earth

2018-09-22 11:57:40 UTC  

That's what they want you to think fire

2018-09-22 11:57:49 UTC  

mechanical gyroscopes work on flat earth, don't work on a globe

2018-09-22 11:57:57 UTC  

help keep the plane level

2018-09-22 11:58:09 UTC  

and give the pilot an ability to see the horizon without actually seeing it

2018-09-22 11:58:17 UTC  

Atmospheric refraction only makes things seem higher than they are, not lower.

2018-09-22 11:59:14 UTC  

air planes do need to keep turning to go due west or due east, because that does curve like a circle around flat earth

2018-09-22 11:59:43 UTC  

on a ball they wouldn't need to keep turning, they could just go due west or due east and stay on that course

2018-09-22 11:59:54 UTC  

without constantly course correcting

2018-09-22 12:00:02 UTC  

slow down a little.

2018-09-22 12:00:06 UTC  

the fact is we live on a flat earth where all directions are south

2018-09-22 12:00:07 UTC  

You're avoiding refraction

2018-09-22 12:00:27 UTC  

no matter where you head, your heading south if you stay going in that same direction

2018-09-22 12:00:46 UTC  

compass points east or west, keep going in that direction and it will turn south eventually as you keep going in that same direction

2018-09-22 12:00:55 UTC  

why, because you live on a flat earth and not a globe

2018-09-22 12:01:12 UTC  

ice wall, antartica blocking all southern exits

2018-09-22 12:01:13 UTC  

You're still avoiding refraction :/

2018-09-22 12:01:21 UTC  

I am 100% going to address your other points

2018-09-22 12:01:26 UTC  

but not until we finish with refraction

2018-09-22 12:01:40 UTC  

you are moving slow like a snail

2018-09-22 12:01:46 UTC  

being slow doesn't prove your point

2018-09-22 12:02:23 UTC  

you have extremely smart people, smarter than me, saying that they have found no curve

2018-09-22 12:02:25 UTC  

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

2018-09-22 12:03:06 UTC  

who cares what direction stuff appears

2018-09-22 12:03:16 UTC  

it doesn't matter what refraction is doing vs reality

2018-09-22 12:03:26 UTC  

we are concerned about the actual shape of the planet, not how light bends

2018-09-22 12:03:27 UTC  

I do

2018-09-22 12:03:35 UTC  

it doesn't matter, we are past that

2018-09-22 12:03:43 UTC  

No we're not.

2018-09-22 12:03:45 UTC  

the fact is the ship isn't going over the horizon, its all flat

2018-09-22 12:03:49 UTC  

okay?

2018-09-22 12:03:49 UTC  

its provable

2018-09-22 12:03:54 UTC  

and you being slow doesn't make you right

2018-09-22 12:03:56 UTC  

why is it below the horizon then?

2018-09-22 12:04:03 UTC  

Optics

2018-09-22 12:04:05 UTC  

Oh?

2018-09-22 12:04:14 UTC  

please explain :)
