Nonstop flight route between Wahiawa, Hawaii, United States and Khuzdar, Pakistan:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Wheeler AAF (HHI), Wahiawa, Hawaii, United States and Khuzdar Airport (KDD), Khuzdar, Pakistan would travel a Great Circle distance of 7,910 miles (or 12,731 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 Wheeler AAF and Khuzdar 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 Wheeler AAF and Khuzdar Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• Wheeler AAF (HHI) currently has only 1 runway.
• The furthest airport from Wheeler AAF (HHI) is Ghanzi Airport (GNZ), which is nearly antipodal to Wheeler AAF (meaning Wheeler AAF is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Ghanzi Airport), and is located 12,413 miles (19,976 kilometers) away in Ghanzi, Botswana.
• In August 1987, the Secretary of the Interior designated Wheeler AFB as a National Historic Landmark, recognizing it as a site of national significance in the history of the United States and, in particular, World War II in the Pacific.
• 2nd Lieutenant Phil Rasmussen found an old, unscathed Curtiss P-36 Hawk and taxied it to a revetment where he had it loaded with ammunition.
• Because of Wheeler AAF's relatively low elevation of 843 feet, planes can take off or land at Wheeler AAF 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.
• By 1940, Wheeler Field had evolved into a primary base for Army Air Corps pursuit aircraft such as the P-40 Warhawk, responsible for air defense of the Hawaiian Islands Territory.

Facts about Khuzdar Airport (KDD):

• Khuzdar Airport (KDD) currently has only 1 runway.

• Because of Khuzdar Airport's high elevation of 4,012 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at KDD. Combined with a high temperature, this could make KDD a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
• The closest airport to Khuzdar Airport (KDD) is Moenjodaro Airport (MJD), which is located 97 miles (157 kilometers) ESE of KDD.
