About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Kurgan Airport (KRO), Kurgan, Russia and Wonderboom Airport (PRY), Pretoria, South Africa would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,019 miles (or 9,687 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 Kurgan Airport and Wonderboom 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 Kurgan Airport and Wonderboom Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Kurgan Airport (KRO):

  • Because of Kurgan Airport's relatively low elevation of 239 feet, planes can take off or land at Kurgan 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 furthest airport from Kurgan Airport (KRO) is Teniente Julio Gallardo Airfield (PNT), which is located 10,719 miles (17,250 kilometers) away in Puerto Natales, Chile.
  • In addition to being known as "Kurgan Airport", another name for KRO is "Аэропорт Курган".
  • Kurgan Airport handled 64,000 passengers last year.

  • Airport management passed to the Greater Pretoria Metropolitan Council in December 1994.
  • Because of Wonderboom Airport's high elevation of 4,095 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at PRY. Combined with a high temperature, this could make PRY a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
  • The airport will initially be able to cope with 450 departing and 400 incoming passengers per hour.
  • The furthest airport from Wonderboom Airport (PRY) is Hana Airport (HNM), which is nearly antipodal to Wonderboom Airport (meaning Wonderboom Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Hana Airport), and is located 12,007 miles (19,323 kilometers) away in Hana, Hawaii, United States.
