Nonstop flight route between Spokane, Washington, United States and Kemmerer, Wyoming, United States:

About this route:

A direct, nonstop flight between Fairchild Air Force Base (SKA), Spokane, Washington, United States and Kemmerer Municipal Airport (EMM), Kemmerer, Wyoming, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 530 miles (or 853 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 Fairchild Air Force Base and Kemmerer Municipal Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about Fairchild Air Force Base (SKA):

• From 1942 until 1946, the base served as a repair depot for damaged aircraft returning from the Pacific Theater.
• In late 1974, the Air Force announced plans to convert the 141st Fighter Interceptor Group of the Washington Air National Guard, an F-101 Voodoo unit at Geiger Field, to an air refueling mission with KC-135 aircraft.
• In addition to being known as "Fairchild Air Force Base", another name for SKA is "Fairchild AFB".
• 7 December 1993 marked the beginning of a significant change in the mission of Fairchild when the B-52s were transferred to another ACC base while the KC-135s, now assigned to the newly established Air Mobility Command would remain.
• The furthest airport from Fairchild Air Force Base (SKA) is Tôlanaro Airport (FTU), which is located 10,665 miles (17,163 kilometers) away in Tôlanaro, Madagascar.
• The closest airport to Fairchild Air Force Base (SKA) is Spokane International Airport (GEG), which is located only 6 miles (9 kilometers) E of SKA.

Facts about Kemmerer Municipal Airport (EMM):

• The airport covers 400 acres at an elevation of 7,285 feet.
• The closest airport to Kemmerer Municipal Airport (EMM) is Miley Memorial Field (BPI), which is located 57 miles (92 kilometers) NNE of EMM.

• The furthest airport from Kemmerer Municipal Airport (EMM) is Sir Gaëtan Duval Airport (RRG), which is located 10,871 miles (17,495 kilometers) away in Rodrigues Island, Mauritius.
• Because of Kemmerer Municipal Airport's high elevation of 7,285 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at EMM. Combined with a high temperature, this could make EMM a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
