Ok and just to reiterate (and given there are several variables involved I think are insignificant to the example) a spy plane moving 2200 mph has to 'drop' 9.9 miles per minute, and 873.7 feet per second in order to maintain a level altitude over the curve of the earth. Your statement makes this insane trajectory plausible?
I know this suggestion doesn't sound very scientific but just watch some videos of spy planes flying at these immense speeds. Are they really dropping 873.7 feet per second to keep up with earth's curvature. Or are they simply flying over a fixed and flat earth? I mean really try to imagine how insane that trajectory is.
9.8 meters per second per second. 9.8m the first second, 19.6m the second, 29.4 the third... After an hour-long trek riding in a hot air balloon, the wicker basket should be falling towards the earth at 35km/s.
First of all the plane has 'lift' so it is not falling due to gravity, and it's in atmosphere so it's not like we are talking about a satellite in orbit. So I don't see how that applies at all.
Second the plane traveling 2200mph, has to drop 595.7 miles in one hour to follow earth's curve. This is far beyond any terminal velocity even of a very aerodynamic object. But again, it's not falling due to lift. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills, does no one see how ridiculous it is for a plane to drop 9.9 miles per minute? By all appearances it's flying straight and level, not following some dramatic earth curve trajectory.
Sorry this is 3 days late.
Squared formulas just dont work our of context. If you take a curve squared you would wind up with a curly cue shape as it gets exponentially tighter squared. Same with gravity.
I share you view that this place is not at all what we are told. And I have found that if you run down any conspiracy theory they all have enough to back them up. This place is crazy.
All that aside planes are not falling at 600 miles an hour. They would be following the curve. flat flight. Flat flight is measured by where you are, not a mile away. How high do they say you have to be to see the curve? Way the heck up there. IF that is true it seems to me that it would not be noticeable to maintain level flight.
Again I do not believe we have been told the truth about anything.
Air is a fluid, and gravity is always oriented to the strongest source.

Simply ask yourself what is the speed of gravity?
