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.

Because of the relatively short distance between Ottumwa Regional Airport and Hemet-Ryan AirportRyan Field, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.
