Nonstop flight route between Changi, Singapore and Gapuwiyak (Lake Evella), Northern Territory, Australia:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Singapore Changi Airport (SIN), Changi, Singapore and Lake Evella Airport (LEL), Gapuwiyak (Lake Evella), Northern Territory, Australia would travel a Great Circle distance of 2,383 miles (or 3,835 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 Singapore Changi Airport and Lake Evella Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about Singapore Changi Airport (SIN):

• The closest airport to Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) is Paya Lebar Air Base (PLAB) (QPG), which is located only 6 miles (9 kilometers) W of SIN.
• In addition to being known as "Singapore Changi Airport", other names for SIN include "Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Changi Singapura", "新加坡樟宜机场(Xīnjiāpō Zhāngyí Jīchǎng)" and "சிங்கப்பூர் சாங்கி விமானநிலையம் (Ciṅkappūr Cāṅki Vimana Nilaiyam)".
• The furthest airport from Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) is Francisco de Orellana Airport (OCC), which is nearly antipodal to Singapore Changi Airport (meaning Singapore Changi Airport is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Francisco de Orellana Airport), and is located 12,345 miles (19,868 kilometers) away in Coca, Ecuador.
• To prepare for the arrival of the Airbus A380, the airport put into place modifications works costing S$60 million, which it has planned for since the late 1990s.
• Recently Changi Airport has also announced plans to reduce consumption of electricity and use recycled water at its terminal buildings over the next three years, as part of its contribution towards environmental sustainability.
• Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) has 3 runways.
• Because of Singapore Changi Airport's relatively low elevation of 22 feet, planes can take off or land at Singapore Changi 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.
• Changi Airport has two parallel runways, 02L/20R and 02C/20C, each 4,000 by 60 m.
• Concerned that the existing airport was located in an area with potential for urban growth, which would physically hem it in on all sides, the government subsequently decided in 1975 to build a new airport at the eastern tip of the main island at Changi, at the existing site of Changi Air Base, where the new airport would be easily expandable through land reclamation.

Facts about Lake Evella Airport (LEL):

• Because of Lake Evella Airport's relatively low elevation of 256 feet, planes can take off or land at Lake Evella 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.
