48. Dubay lies about all planes between Santiago and Johannesburg travelling via Sengal

Image
“On a ball-Earth Santiago, Chile to Johannesburg, South Africa should be an easy flight all taking place below the Tropic of Capricorn in the Southern hemisphere, yet every listed flight makes a curious re-fueling stop in Senegal near the Tropic of Cancer in the North hemisphere first! When mapped on a flat Earth the reason why is clear to see, however, Senegal is actually directly in a straight-line path half-way between the two.” Another blatant lie that exposes Dubay as a compulsive liar I must admit that I got bored after looking for ANY flight from Santiago to Johannesburg that stopped in Senegal.  But after looking for a couple of days in March 2018 I FOUND NOT ONE, so the claim that every flight stops in Senegal is yet another blatant lie. Either Dubay is a compulsive liar or he is confident that his audience isn't that interested in truth. The reason behind this lie of a "proof" is that Dubay wishes you to believe that all airlines would choose ...

47. Dubay caught lying again about certain flight routes not existing/existing

Image
“On a ball-Earth Johannesburg, South Africa to Sao Paolo, Brazil should be a quick straight shot along the 25th Southern latitude, but instead nearly every flight makes a re-fueling stop at the 50th degree North latitude in London first! The only reason such a ridiculous stop-over works in reality is because the Earth is flat.” Dubay shamelessly lying again From March 18-24th 2018 there were 236 flights from Johannesburg to Sao Paolo.  I COULD NOT FIND ONE FLIGHT that went via London.  Maybe I missed one or two, but regardless the claim is just another blatant lie. Look it up on yourself on expedia.com , and let this be a lesson learnt that you cannot trust anything that Dubay says. The reason behind this lie of a "proof" is that Dubay wishes you to believe that all airlines would choose to take the shortest route and that because most routes are via the northern hemisphere they would only be shortest if the Earth was flat.  Dubay either does not unde...

46. Dubay repeats that airlines' use of routes via hub airports in the northern hemisphere as being the most direct route on a flat Earth

Image
“On  a ball-Earth Cape Town, South Africa to Buenos Aries, Argentina should be a straight shot over the Atlantic following the same line of latitude across, but instead every flight goes to connecting locations in the Northern hemisphere first, stopping over anywhere from London to Turkey to Dubai. Once again these make absolutely no sense on the globe but are completely understandable options when mapped on a flat Earth.” This is same as proof 45 Same pathetic attempt at a proof, slightly different example, another lie, same failure to prove anything. In addition Dubay is caught lying again.  Look up the quickest flight available from Cape Town to Buenos Aries on http://www.expedia.com/ .  You will find flights via Johannesburg and Sao Paolo, neither of which are anywhere near the northern hemisphere. The reason behind this lie of a "proof" is that Dubay wishes you to believe that all airlines would choose to take the shortest route and that because most route...

45. Dubay explains airlines' use of routes via hub airports in the northern hemisphere as being the most direct route on a flat Earth

”On a ball-Earth, Johannesburg, South Africa to Perth, Australia should be a straight shot over the Indian Ocean with convenient re-fueling possibilities on Mauritus or Madagascar. In actual practice, however, most Johannesburg to Perth flights curiously stop over either in Dubai, Hong Kong or Malaysia all of which make no sense on the ball, but are completely understandable when mapped on a flat Earth.” This is similar to proof 44 .  Dubay does not understand that airlines use hubs airports for commercial reasons.. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airline_hub See: https://www.quora.com/Why-do-airlines-follow-a-hub-and-spoke-model-For-example-why-do-Emirates-Airways-flights-go-to-Dubai-first-and-then-from-there-go-to-other-destinations Full explanation of the Hub and Spoke model It is true that most flights from Johannesburg to Perth are via Dubai (and nearby Abu Dhabi), Hong Kong and Singapore (not Malaysia).  However, the reason is not because these are the ...

44. Because commercial aircraft do not take the direct route over Antarctica but instead fly via the northern hemisphere the Earth must be flat

Image
“If Earth was a ball, and Antarctica was too cold to fly over, the only logical way to fly from Sydney to Santiago would be a straight shot over the Pacific staying in the Southern hemisphere the entire way. Re-fueling could be done in New Zealand or other Southern hemisphere destinations along the way if absolutely necessary. In actual fact, however, Santiago-Sydney flights go into the Northern hemisphere making stop-overs at LAX and other North American airports before continuing back down to the Southern hemisphere. Such ridiculously wayward detours make no sense on the globe but make perfect sense and form nearly straight lines when shown on a flat Earth map.” Dubay does not understand the Hub model that airlines operate. There are commercial reasons why many airline routes do not fly direct.  Airlines typically operate on a spoke and hub basis.  I.e.  they have a main airports through which they route all their flights.  This allows them to service many mo...
