About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Tonopah Airport (TPH), Tonopah, Nevada, United States and General Pico Airport (GPO), General Pico, La Pampa, Argentina would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,131 miles (or 9,866 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 Tonopah Airport and General Pico 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 Tonopah Airport and General Pico Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

- Tonopah Airport (TPH) has 2 runways.
- The closest airport to Tonopah Airport (TPH) is Tonopah Test Range Airport (XSD), which is located 25 miles (40 kilometers) SE of TPH.
- Because of Tonopah Airport's high elevation of 5,430 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at TPH. Combined with a high temperature, this could make TPH a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
