Nonstop flight route between Panama City, Florida, United States and Naryan-Mar, Nenets Autonomous Okrug, Russia:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Tyndall Air Force Base (PAM), Panama City, Florida, United States and Naryan-Mar Airport (NNM), Naryan-Mar, Nenets Autonomous Okrug, Russia would travel a Great Circle distance of 5,356 miles (or 8,619 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 Tyndall Air Force Base and Naryan-Mar 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 Tyndall Air Force Base and Naryan-Mar Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!
