First of all I think the height of an airplane is a little less than the distance between New York and Ireland or whatever, and also..... you can’t see the ground from 30,000 feet. There’s nearly always clouds in the way. Thanks for reinforcing my point.
I didn't reinforce anything. You are just being delusional or haven't been in an airplane and had a good window seat. There's plenty of flight videos where you can clearly see the land while they are flying.
I pointed out the ridiculousness of your statement.
I’ve flown many times and seen a perfectly flat horizon all around me that rises to eye level as the plane gains altitude, instead of dropping away at the edges like it would if we were actually on a ball sloping away from us in all directions.
So you have fisheye lenses?
When there are no clouds you can see the ground perfectly from an aeroplane. And wouldn’t the existence of clouds at those heights suggest our “thin water atmosphere” is thicker at those heights than at ground level? Clouds are just water vapour after all.
