183) "Flights Eastwards from Chicago to Boston with the alleged spin of the ball-Earth
take an average of 2.25 hours, therefore the return flights Westwards against
the alleged spin should take an average of just over an hour, but in actual
fact take an average of 2.75 hours, once again, completely inconsistent with
the spinning ball model."
The same claim again, and one that's been refuted repeatedly
Mr Dubay doesn't believe that the atmosphere turns too, and doesn't understand what that implies.
I won't repeat the points covered before in claims 20, 21 and 22, claim 25, claim 27 and at tedious length at other points.
By the way, remember the coriolis effect - you know, the one whose effect on storms proves that the earth is a globe - does affect the routes aircraft have to take. this is well known to all flight navigators, and is yet more evidence for the spherical earth.
More on how coriolis changes flight paths:
