If the Earth is flat - how it’s possible:
You can make the following flights, starting at 9am, finishing at 3pm (or earlier) and staying at the hotel till the next day:
-
London, Uk => New York => Los Angeles => Tokyo => Doha => London, UK
-
The above series of trips starts and ends in the same place.
-
All the time, while flying, you’ve got the Sun on the left hand side.
You can only explain that in 2 ways:
-
Earth is a globe as we know it, or
-
Earth is flat, but then it needs to have a shape of a donut where the sun is in the center of it, so you fly around it.
The second would mean: when you fly South of London you should cross the middle of a donut (which is the Sun) after 12 hours of trip.
Let’s fly towards the sun:
London, UK => South Africa => the Sun.
Unfortunately, after 12 hours you end up in an extremely cold area.
Here is what a flight around the world would look like on a flat map, with the sun staying on the left hand side of the plain the hole way.

The problem is:In Los Angeles, Tokyo, Doha, you’re changing the direction (straight angle) so you have the sun behind you for most of the trip, not on the left.
Well the sun isn't on your right. I don't see how that's a problem. Just adjust your timing to keep it more or less on your left.
Here is another link, to the same image I made for you.

Same image, problem still the same.
The sun moves along the yellow line I outlined. In 24 hours the sun will be back at its starting point.
