About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Hunt Field (LND), Lander, Wyoming, United States and Pensacola International Airport (PNS), Pensacola, Florida, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,460 miles (or 2,350 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 Hunt Field and Pensacola International Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

- 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.
- Hunt Field (LND) currently has only 1 runway.
