Nonstop flight route between Moultrie, Georgia, United States and Cusco, Cusco Region, Peru:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Spence Airport (MUL), Moultrie, Georgia, United States and Alejandro Velasco Astete International Airport (CUZ), Cusco, Cusco Region, Peru would travel a Great Circle distance of 3,184 miles (or 5,124 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 Spence Airport and Alejandro Velasco Astete International 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 Spence Airport and Alejandro Velasco Astete International Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

• Because of Spence Airport's relatively low elevation of 292 feet, planes can take off or land at Spence 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 airport was used for many years by the military, finally being closed as Spence Air Base.
