Question

Is Air Travel Time The Same Whether Or Not The Plane Is Flying With Or Against The Rotation Of The Earth?

Answer 1

Answer:

All air travel takes the earth's rotation into account. Flights from east to west take less time in absolute terms, having nothing to do with time zones. The reverse is true with west to east flights, and even north-south flights must calculate the amount of rotational deviance while the aircraft is in flight. Long range naval cannons have been computing the earth's rotation under the projectile in aiming calculations for more than a century. Satellites in synchronous orbit that appear stationary are actually traveling at the earth's rate of rotation.

Answer 2

Explanation:

The short answer is no, because our plane is also affected by Earth's spin, which means we're spinning away from our destination while our destination is spinning towards us.
