Hello chaps

hello buster

Hello chestnut

hello nans

How’s the kid

whats up flatties

the earth is flat, there's never any observable curvature

water never curves

Yes u get it

The earth is a non-symmetrical triangle you marron

your plane doesn't gain altitude when it flies straightforward

your horizon never curves

silence dillius

You shush me you heathen

state your purpose at once

To take back my throne from king chestnut II

And become ruler

King

long live... the king

Planes won't gain altitude if you fly straight, because they are still bound to Earth's gravity. The way you visualize flight is incorrect. You could imagine the plane as simply a machine that propels itself fast enough, utilizing the air in the atmosphere, wings, as well as powerful engines to help, that instead of directly falling back down to earth, it simply continues falling, except it moves fast enough to miss the earth as well, creating a sort of equilibrium that maintains the plane in a stable flight. If you think about it like this, the plane has no reason to dip downwards to stay on the earth, as its already falling and moving at balance that maintains it in one, stable position.
Also, just in case you're wondering about the rest of the common issues flat earthers have with flight - flying against or with the rotation of the earth doesn't make a difference because everything on earth is already moving with it. If you move with the earth, your speed is that of earth + any propulsion you get from your engines, if you move against the earth, your speed is that of the earth minus the propulsion you get with your engines...moving at the speed of the earth being relatively motionless from your standpoint.
The same thing applies to helicopters. If you jump on a helicopter and hover for 6 hours, you will land on the exact same spot you left off from. The reason being because the atmosphere, as well as everything in it moves with the earth. Your helicopter traveled at the same speed of the earth event though it hadn't touched the ground. If it seems strange, just try playing catch with someone on the back of a moving pickup truck. When you throw the ball, it doesn't immediately fly backwards at 60mph, does it? it continues moving and reaches the other person, because it is moving at the speed that the earth rotates, and moves around the sun + the speed of the truck, + the force you exerted on it when you threw it. @rivenator12113
