About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Cibeureum Airfield (TSY), Tasikmalaya, West Java, Indonesia and Berlin Tempelhof Airport (THF), Berlin, Germany would travel a Great Circle distance of 6,824 miles (or 10,982 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 Cibeureum Airfield and Berlin Tempelhof 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 Cibeureum Airfield and Berlin Tempelhof Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Berlin Tempelhof Airport (THF):
- Zentralflughafen Tempelhof-Berlin had the advantage of a central location just minutes from the Berlin city centre and quickly became one of the world's busiest airports.
- The grass runways usual in Germany until then could not cope with the massive demand, and a subsequently built runway containing perforated steel matting began to crumble under the weight of the USAF's C-54 Skymasters.
- Berlin Tempelhof Airport (THF) has 2 runways.
- Because of Berlin Tempelhof Airport's relatively low elevation of 164 feet, planes can take off or land at Berlin Tempelhof 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.
