Nonstop flight route between Española, New Mexico, United States and Pensacola, Florida, United States:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Ohkay Owingeh Airport (ESO), Española, New Mexico, United States and NOLF Saufley Field (NUN), Pensacola, Florida, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,145 miles (or 1,842 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 Ohkay Owingeh Airport and NOLF Saufley Field, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about Ohkay Owingeh Airport (ESO):

• Because of Ohkay Owingeh Airport's high elevation of 5,790 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at ESO. Combined with a high temperature, this could make ESO a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
• The furthest airport from Ohkay Owingeh Airport (ESO) is Sir Gaëtan Duval Airport (RRG), which is located 11,142 miles (17,931 kilometers) away in Rodrigues Island, Mauritius.

This is because the air density is higher closer to sea level than it would otherwise be at higher elevations.
