About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between F.D. Roosevelt Airport (EUX), Sint Eustatius, Caribbean Netherlands and Hunt Field (LND), Lander, Wyoming, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 3,190 miles (or 5,134 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 F.D. Roosevelt Airport and Hunt Field, 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 F.D. Roosevelt Airport and Hunt Field. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

- Because of F.D. Roosevelt Airport's relatively low elevation of 129 feet, planes can take off or land at F.D. Roosevelt 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.

- Hunt Field (LND) currently has only 1 runway.
- The closest airport to Hunt Field (LND) is Riverton Regional Airport (RIW), which is located 22 miles (35 kilometers) NE of LND.
- Because of Hunt Field's high elevation of 5,587 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at LND. Combined with a high temperature, this could make LND a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
- The furthest airport from Hunt Field (LND) is Sir Gaëtan Duval Airport (RRG), which is located 10,778 miles (17,346 kilometers) away in Rodrigues Island, Mauritius.
