About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Animas Air Park (AMK), Durango, Colorado, United States and La Nubia Airport (MZL), Manizales, Colombia would travel a Great Circle distance of 3,020 miles (or 4,860 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 Animas Air Park and La Nubia 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 Animas Air Park and La Nubia Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Animas Air Park (AMK):
- Because of Animas Air Park's high elevation of 6,684 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at AMK. Combined with a high temperature, this could make AMK a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- In addition to being known as "Animas Air Park", another name for AMK is "00C".
- The closest airport to Animas Air Park (AMK) is Durango–La Plata County Airport (DRO), which is located only 7 miles (12 kilometers) ESE of AMK.
- Animas Air Park (AMK) currently has only 1 runway.
- The furthest airport from Animas Air Park (AMK) is Sir Gaëtan Duval Airport (RRG), which is located 11,121 miles (17,897 kilometers) away in Rodrigues Island, Mauritius.

- La Nubia Airport (MZL) currently has only 1 runway.
