Nonstop flight route between San Diego, California, United States and Bisbee/Douglas, Arizona, United States:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Montgomery Field (MYF), San Diego, California, United States and Bisbee Douglas International Airport (DUG), Bisbee/Douglas, Arizona, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 450 miles (or 725 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 Montgomery Field and Bisbee Douglas International Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

• After the war the airport returned to civil control.
• Because of Montgomery Field's relatively low elevation of 427 feet, planes can take off or land at Montgomery Field 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 closest airport to Montgomery Field (MYF) is MCAS Miramar, (NKX), which is located only 4 miles (6 kilometers) N of MYF.
• Montgomery Field (MYF) has 3 runways.
• The airport opened in July 1940 as "Gibbs Field" as an all-way clay and gravel surface airfield.
