About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof (ZWS), Stuttgart, Germany and Dillingham Airfield (HDH), Mokuleia, Hawaii, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 7,513 miles (or 12,091 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 Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof and Dillingham Airfield, 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 Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof and Dillingham Airfield. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof (ZWS):
- In addition to its great architectural quality, the new building was well incorporated into the other structures in the city center.
- The connected freight station, which featured a marshaling hump and rail brakes, was closed, due to both the reduction in freight traffic, and in preparation for the Stuttgart 21 project.
- Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof is a railway station in the city of Stuttgart, the capital of the Land of Baden-Württemberg, in southwestern Germany.
- The station building was constructed using reinforced concrete, which was then covered with roughly hewn shell limestone ashlar, sourced from the area around Crailsheim.
- The furthest airport from Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof (ZWS) is Chatham Islands (CHT), which is nearly antipodal to Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof (meaning Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Chatham Islands), and is located 12,001 miles (19,313 kilometers) away in Waitangi, Chatham Islands, New Zealand.
- The closest airport to Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof (ZWS) is Stuttgart Airport (STR), which is located only 7 miles (11 kilometers) SSE of ZWS.
- The Stuttgart architect and Bonatz expert Matthias Roser initiated an international call for the preservation of the Hauptbahnhof, including the wings, and over 400 architects, building historians, monument conservators, art historians, and city planners, such as the Pritzger Prize recipient Richard Meier or David Chipperfield, have joined this effort.
- Because of Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof's relatively low elevation of 0 feet, planes can take off or land at Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof 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.
Facts about Dillingham Airfield (HDH):
- Dillingham Airfield is part of a centralized state structure governing all of the airports and seaports of Hawaii.
- The closest airport to Dillingham Airfield (HDH) is Wheeler AAF (HHI), which is located only 12 miles (19 kilometers) ESE of HDH.
- A communications station called Camp Kawaihapai was established here in 1922 on 67 acres along the Oahu Railway and Land Company line.
- The television series Lost filmed several scenes at Dillingham Airfield, due to its remote location close to the North Shore, where the series was primarily filmed.
- Because of Dillingham Airfield's relatively low elevation of 14 feet, planes can take off or land at Dillingham Airfield 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.
- The runway was paved, extended to 9,000 feet long, and a crosswind runway added from 1942-1945.
- Dillingham Airfield (HDH) currently has only 1 runway.
- The furthest airport from Dillingham Airfield (HDH) is Ghanzi Airport (GNZ), which is nearly antipodal to Dillingham Airfield (meaning Dillingham Airfield is almost on the exact opposite side of the Earth from Ghanzi Airport), and is located 12,425 miles (19,995 kilometers) away in Ghanzi, Botswana.
