Ok, I watched it.
And like I’ve said over and over, flight paths work on a flat earth as well.
Consider this point where he says it IS a straight line, just like you would expect on a flat earth. Regardless of the website which had the curved flight path (which is actually straight like he said), flight paths work on both models and your video did not disprove the flat earth. Why not just test for curvature yourself? You need a landmark far enough away, a phone with altimeter (iPhone has it in the compass app, but you have to turn it on in settings), www.distance.to for ‘as the crow flies’ measurements and either an earth curve calculator, or even do the math yourself.

The second one was VERY interesting - check out Antarctica, why do you think the image was programmed like that?

Flat paths/durations do not work on a flat map. Pick any flat earth map of your choosing and you will not be able to justify the schedules.
An altimeter measures a distance above the ground. Getting the same results spanning a large distance does not add to the conversation. We would need a laser pointer to conduct the experiment you desire.
Nope. You use your altitude, you find your distance, and you input into an earth curve calculator. Sorry you are having trouble with this simple concept.
I’ve only got a section of a flat earth map, but you only need to use it to show how it doesn’t work, right?
Altitude is how far you are off the ground. (Read: from the ground) not from a fly on the wall. If you want fly on the wall third person perspective you cant use that instrument because it begs the very question that youre trying to answer.
