Nonstop flight route between Kekaha, Hawaii, United States and Bountiful, Utah, United States:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between PMRF Barking Sands (BKH), Kekaha, Hawaii, United States and Skypark Airport (BTF), Bountiful, Utah, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 3,061 miles (or 4,926 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 PMRF Barking Sands and Skypark 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 PMRF Barking Sands and Skypark Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about PMRF Barking Sands (BKH):

• In 1921, the land area known as the Barking Sands was acquired by the Kekaha Sugar Company and became a runway for private planes.
• The Navy is currently working with the State of Hawaii and Kauai County to ensure the long-term viability of PMRF.
• Because of PMRF Barking Sands's relatively low elevation of 23 feet, planes can take off or land at PMRF Barking Sands 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.
• PMRF Barking Sands (BKH) currently has only 1 runway.
• The furthest airport from PMRF Barking Sands (BKH) is Gobabis Airport (GOG), which is nearly antipodal to PMRF Barking Sands (meaning PMRF Barking Sands is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Gobabis Airport), and is located 12,351 miles (19,877 kilometers) away in Gobabis, Namibia.

Facts about Skypark Airport (BTF):

• Skypark Airport (BTF) currently has only 1 runway.
• Because of Skypark Airport's high elevation of 4,234 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at BTF. Combined with a high temperature, this could make BTF a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
