About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Vinh Airport (VII), Vinh, Nghe An, Vietnam and Bafoussam Airport (BFX), Bafoussam, Cameroon would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,442 miles (or 10,367 kilometers).

A Great Circle is the shortest distance between 2 points on a sphere. Because most world maps are flat (but the Earth is round), the route of the shortest distance between 2 points on the Earth will often appear curved when viewed on a flat map, especially for long distances. If you were to simply draw a straight line on a flat map and measure a very long distance, it would likely be much further than if you were to lay a string between those two points on a globe. Because of the large distance between Vinh Airport and Bafoussam Airport, the route shown on this map most likely appears curved because of this reason.

Try it at home! Get a globe and tightly lay a string between Vinh Airport and Bafoussam Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Vinh Airport (VII):

  • The furthest airport from Vinh Airport (VII) is Ilo Airport (ILQ), which is nearly antipodal to Vinh Airport (meaning Vinh Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Ilo Airport), and is located 12,228 miles (19,679 kilometers) away in Ilo, Moquegua Region, Peru.
  • The closest airport to Vinh Airport (VII) is Tho Xuan Airport (THD), which is located 82 miles (131 kilometers) N of VII.
  • Because of Vinh Airport's relatively low elevation of 20 feet, planes can take off or land at Vinh Airport at a lower air speed than at airports located at a higher elevation. This is because the air density is higher closer to sea level than it would otherwise be at higher elevations.
  • Vinh Airport (VII) currently has only 1 runway.
  • In addition to being known as "Vinh Airport", another name for VII is "Sân bay Vinh".

Facts about Bafoussam Airport (BFX):

  • The closest airport to Bafoussam Airport (BFX) is Dschang Airport (DSC), which is located 21 miles (33 kilometers) WSW of BFX.
  • Because of Bafoussam Airport's high elevation of 4,347 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at BFX. Combined with a high temperature, this could make BFX a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
  • Bafoussam Airport (BFX) currently has only 1 runway.
