About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Cap. FAP Victor Montes Arias Airport (TYL), Talara, Peru and Terrance B. Lettsome International Airport (EIS), Beef Island (near Tortola), British Virgin Islands would travel a Great Circle distance of 1,956 miles (or 3,148 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 Cap. FAP Victor Montes Arias Airport and Terrance B. Lettsome International Airport, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.
