If somebody knows a pilot ask them if they have to constantly dip the plane to allow for the curvature of the earth....

Why would they have to?If somebody knows a pilot ask them if they have to constantly dip the plane to allow for the curvature of the earth....
It was a stupid joke really...my badWhy would they have to?

I would have thought it was simple garvity = lift. Ignoring minor changes in gravity, and slightly less minor changes in atmosphere, the same thrust against the same gravity keeps a plane at the same altitude without a need to adjust. The amount it falls and the amount of lift balance each other out.Such a falacy that "dip the plane" argument. One of the ways they keep it straight is by measuring distance to the ground, so they are constant adjusting to keep it about the same distance to the ground, thereby they are already naturally adjusting for the very gradual curve.

This would hold true of a round or flat Earth, perhaps not a cubic Earth where the change is not so gradual on the edges.
Not flat.

Pics or **** off!Was just in a plane from Paris to Abu Dhabi. Got up very high, could see with my own two eyes the curve of the earth.

well, youve got me convinced. im off to burn the library in the name of jesus!one of the facets of this conspiracy that is interesting is the apparent assumptions onto which modern science is heaped. according to wikipedia, henry cavendish was able to measure a torsion force of 1.74E-7 newtons due to the apparent gravitational attraction of the metal balls to one another. the article then says that this is equivalent to the weight of a "large grain of sand (13mg)". when you do the actual calculation, however, you get 0.000000174/9.81 = 1.8E-8 kg or 0.018mg which is 722 times less than the large grain of sand.
in short, was a man - named cavendish - able to calculate the weight of the sun, by hanging two balls from a roof? the experiment is simply one of the most ludicrous things i've ever heard.

no theyre all a flat circle like a coin but the greens use their bogus science to make sure theyre always facing towards us so that they look like a sphere. the proof is that a crescent moon is actually when they are having technical problems.Assumptions made by others and their experiments don't prove or disprove a rounded earth. Actually seeing the big goose from up high and seeing its curve - that is proof.
And as I've said earlier ITT, even if you haven't been up high enough to see the earths curve, you can see the rounded shape of the moon. You don't even need a telescope but through a telescope it is obvious. I was watching the footy the other night and the cameras had a great close up of the moon, it was beautiful, of course, and it was rounded.
So, the moon is demonstrably round. The sun is round. The other planets are round. The earth is flat though lol...
don't you have children?Assumptions made by others and their experiments don't prove or disprove a rounded earth. Actually seeing the big goose from up high and seeing its curve - that is proof.

my god. i'm not here - for the 70th time - to have arguments about the shape of the earth. this thread is about a community of roughly 10,000 people on youtube who've, in the last year and a half, created something of a 'scene' of cosmological research.
you morons don't seem to be able to get it through your heads that i don't think the world is flat but simply enjoy looking into a fringe line of research.
i've become pretty enamoured with yoga instructor, flat-earther and all-round interesting guy eric dubay.
Assumptions? Really? There's a saying: "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing".one of the facets of this conspiracy that is interesting is the apparent assumptions onto which modern science is heaped. according to wikipedia, henry cavendish was able to measure a torsion force of 1.74E-7 newtons due to the apparent gravitational attraction of the metal balls to one another. the article then says that this is equivalent to the weight of a "large grain of sand (13mg)". when you do the actual calculation, however, you get 0.000000174/9.81 = 1.8E-8 kg or 0.018mg which is 722 times less than the large grain of sand.
