But the flight is not instantaneous. So when you start in Alaska you have the same angular momentum as when you land in Peru.

Along the way, because you maintain angular momentum, your own velocity increases as you move along the radius and go farther out. This is in reference to the earth, but your personal awareness is based on changing angular momentum which doesn't change. And since you move along with the earth over a non-instant time frame, you will not be able to accelerate fast enough to break away from the earth.

I am sorry for being rude. But to me, this is pretty clear. I am open to the idea of a flat earth, but not through arguments like this.

So that very continuation of rotation carries all the mass of the earth around it along with you. That momentum carries through and you are effectively rotating with the earth (ie spinning alongside it)

When you jump, you are not countering the rotational momentum you are experiencing, because you are jumping from within the rotating body, because you are undergoing that same continuing rotation.

The jump lifts you from the point on the surface of the earth, but it doesn't remove the rotational momentum you are undergoing relative to the earth as whole (including it's atmosphere etc)

When planes fly, they are flying within the fluid air medium which is also near the surface undergoing very similar momentum. So the air is also rotating and the plane is merely within it. So when it travels, the air is still rotating around the centre axis along the poles as well so it carries along with the general atmosphere.

When a fish swims through a stream, it doesn't move the stream, yet it may fight harder against the current. The stream is still flowing and if the fish stops fighting it, the stream carries it away.

Replying to myself as the threads don't go any further.

But Slippage would indeed occur....but not just so close off the ground. It is light, and has been highly compressed....so not much needed to push it around near the ground but it isn't 'free' of forces.

The slippage occurs miles and miles up and is where the airplanes go up to do those weightless dives. That is where slippage will occur somewhat....so if they stay up there yes, they will lose or gain speed.

You almost had it....you must realize that the plane cannot leave the 'system' of the earth which is undergoing the angular momentum.....

The air also has it ..
