Nonstop flight route between Sedona, Arizona, United States and Tengah, Singapore:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Sedona Airport (SDX), Sedona, Arizona, United States and Tengah Air Base (TAB) (TGA), Tengah, Singapore would travel a Great Circle distance of 9,041 miles (or 14,550 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 Sedona Airport and Tengah Air Base (TAB), 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 Sedona Airport and Tengah Air Base (TAB). You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Sedona Airport (SDX):

• Because of Sedona Airport's high elevation of 4,830 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at SDX. Combined with a high temperature, this could make SDX a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
• In addition to being known as "Sedona Airport", another name for SDX is "SEZ".
• Former two time Olympic distance runner Pat Porter, his 15 year old son Connor and a friend of his son, 14 year old Connor Mantsch, died when their airplane, a Beechcraft Duke piloted by Porter, crashed after takeoff from the airport, on Thursday, July 26, 2012.

• Because of Tengah Air Base (TAB)'s relatively low elevation of 50 feet, planes can take off or land at Tengah Air Base (TAB) 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 Tengah Air Base (TAB) (TGA) is Francisco de Orellana Airport (OCC), which is nearly antipodal to Tengah Air Base (TAB) (meaning Tengah Air Base (TAB) is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Francisco de Orellana Airport), and is located 12,357 miles (19,886 kilometers) away in Coca, Ecuador.

• In addition to being known as "Tengah Air Base (TAB)", other names for TGA include "登加空军基地" and "Pangkalan Udara Tengah".
• The closest airport to Tengah Air Base (TAB) (TGA) is Seletar Airport (XSP), which is located only 11 miles (18 kilometers) E of TGA.
