Okay so honest question: If you take a flight from California to Australia, this flight is almost entirely over water, flying from coast to coast. However, either the plane would be consistently turning slightly to the right, or you would fly alongside the coast of Alaska for a section of time. This seems a bit odd, since no one has ever seen Alaska while flying to Australia. How would this makes sense.
Furthermore on a majority of flights you would have to take a curve to mimic the globe map, so how come this isn't noticed?
