About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Mullewa Airport (MXU), Mullewa, Western Australia, Australia and Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport (BJC), Denver, Colorado, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 10,008 miles (or 16,106 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 Mullewa Airport and Rocky Mountain Metropolitan 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 Mullewa Airport and Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Mullewa Airport (MXU):
- The furthest airport from Mullewa Airport (MXU) is L.F. Wade International Airport (BDA), which is nearly antipodal to Mullewa Airport (meaning Mullewa Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from L.F. Wade International Airport), and is located 12,168 miles (19,582 kilometers) away in Ferry Reach (near Hamilton), Bermuda.
- Because of Mullewa Airport's relatively low elevation of 950 feet, planes can take off or land at Mullewa 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.
