About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Germán Olano Airport (PCR), Puerto Carreño, Colombia and Chilas Airport (CHB), Chilas, Pakistan would travel a Great Circle distance of 8,630 miles (or 13,889 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 Germán Olano Airport and Chilas 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 Germán Olano Airport and Chilas Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

- The closest airport to Germán Olano Airport (PCR) is Cacique Aramare Airport (PYH), which is located 40 miles (64 kilometers) SSW of PCR.
- Because of Germán Olano Airport's relatively low elevation of 173 feet, planes can take off or land at Germán Olano 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 furthest airport from Germán Olano Airport (PCR) is Juanda International Airport (SUB), which is nearly antipodal to Germán Olano Airport (meaning Germán Olano Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Juanda International Airport), and is located 12,352 miles (19,879 kilometers) away in Surabaya, Indonesia.
