Nonstop flight route between Amook Bay, Alaska, United States and Peach Springs, Arizona, United States:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Amook Bay Seaplane Base (AOS), Amook Bay, Alaska, United States and Grand Canyon Caverns Airport (PGS), Peach Springs, Arizona, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,396 miles (or 3,856 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 relatively short distance between Amook Bay Seaplane Base and Grand Canyon Caverns Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

• Because of Amook Bay Seaplane Base's relatively low elevation of 0 feet, planes can take off or land at Amook Bay Seaplane Base 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.
• In addition to being known as "Amook Bay Seaplane Base", another name for AOS is "AK81".
• Amook Bay Seaplane Base (AOS) currently has only 1 runway.
• The closest airport to Amook Bay Seaplane Base (AOS) is Zachar Bay Seaplane Base (KZB), which is located only 6 miles (10 kilometers) NNE of AOS.
