I have fallen into this thread because I'm genuinely curious to find the answer to this question. Why don't flerfs ask more questions instead of leaping to extraordinary claims? The answers to your questions are really not that far away. |

for a good long minute and a half.Ok, so you clearly don't have a lot of math in your background. Approximating the earth as flat eliminates the need to account for a constant, miniscule downward rotation of an aircraft. In fact the section you pointed out begins with: Quote:
Fun fact, all aerodynamics is just approximations. In reality gasses are just an absurdly large number of tiny bouncy balls flying through space running into each other. Nobody has the computing power to track every atom as it tumbles through existence, so we make due with what we got. Up until CFD, that was test a bunch of stuff in a wind tunnel or on an aircraft and figure out the equations that connect the dots. Now with CFD, we can break complex shapes down into tiny simple shapes (cubes, triangles, and trapezoids) and iterate through the N-S equations a million times to get to the solution. Anyway, I would recommend looking up stuff on how mega bridges/structures are surveyed and engineered. When you start talking about structures that are miles long and need to match up within a mm or so, the curvature of the earth matters. Second fun fact, the earth is not a sphere, but a geoid. It's actually a bit pear-shaped and lumpy. Not visibly so, but enough to throw off stuff like that if you aren't careful.

Remember when I was telling y'all about that car ride with the conspiracy nut? It's the part where there's 13 satanic families that are trying to bring about the apocalypse. Or something like that.

it's just interesting how many different ideas there are around the same concept, but somehow all of them are correct to everyone.
