About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Ugolny Airport (DYR), Anadyr, Russia and Lubumbashi International Airport (FBM), Lubumbashi, Democratic Republic of the Congo would travel a Great Circle distance of 8,498 miles (or 13,676 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 Ugolny Airport and Lubumbashi International 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 Ugolny Airport and Lubumbashi International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Ugolny Airport (DYR):
- In addition to being known as "Ugolny Airport", another name for DYR is "Аэропорт Угольный".
 - Because of Ugolny Airport's relatively low elevation of 194 feet, planes can take off or land at Ugolny 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.
 - The airport is located on the opposite site of the Anadyr River compared to the city.
 - Ugolny Airport (DYR) currently has only 1 runway.
 - It was featured in the American novel Flight of the Old Dog.

Combined with a high temperature, this could make FBM a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
