I shall have to go over your post more to get the gist of it, as at the mo it just sounds gobbledygook to me.
How ever I appreciate you trying to explain it too me. :)
The easiest thing to do is look at the flight path on your flat earth map. Sydney to Santiago literally flies directly over Los Angeles on its way, so the flight should be way longer than Sydney to Los Angeles, yet it takes less time to fly Sydney to Santiago than it does to fly Sydney to Los Angeles.

Thus, flat earth does not match reality whereas globe earth matches perfectly.

Then I hope it is obvious to you that flights from Sydney to Santiago make absolutely no sense on your flat earth map, being a shorter flight than Sydney to Los Angeles, yet make perfect sense on the globe.

Those flights don’t make sense because pilots are just part of the hundreds of millions of people who are all in on the conspiracy to hide the shape of the planet for no apparent reason at all.

Isn't it obvious ?

They are always asking you to produce a flat earth model. Well ask them to produce an actual physical 3d globe showing the land masses at 100% accurate size.

So why haven't you been able to produce one. If the earth was actually flat it would have been the easiest thing to do.

Why don't you ask? (admittedly you should be asking for a scale model, not 100%)

Explain how it isn't, because it seems to match up pretty well with the red adjusted sizes posted above.

The map above shows the distortion in sizes of countries due to the mercator projection.

WOW - Some reduction in sizes here - Thanks @d taylor

This is getting more like the flat earth map every time & wheres Antarctica ?

I think I've asked them this before but a scaled down model which displays the sun, moon and all the stars - But alas no joy.

Does this really occur in the south pole ? How can it when Antarctica encircles the whole earth - 360° ?
Try a Google image search for "Aurora Australis." You will find hundred of pictures of Aurora Australis, like this one: taken in the Antarctic:

Very beautiful - But was it taken in Antarctica ?
Why not? It, and hundreds like it, are to be found by a Google image search for "Aurora Australis". Also, there are people living in the South part of the earth who have seen Aurora Australis, whereas we in the North see Aurora Borealis.

As Antarctica encircles the earth like a ring.

Why do think they have the laurel leaves encircling the map on the UN logo ?

Why shouldn't it have been?
Two people on this forum have said that it was; what evidence have you to say that it wasn't?

Nonsense.
Those leaves don't meet at the top. They are not "encircling" anything, and they are laurel leaves, not a ring of ice.

More nonsense. The earth is encircled by a snake, now?

YOU know the earth is a globe, just as you know that Charles Duke walked on the moon.
You just won't admit it.

It is a symbol & it's called the ' Ouroboros.'

AI
Ouroboros, a serpent coiled in a ring around the Earth and biting it's own tail is a symbol.

Not, unfortunately, to the one who needs it. I have very little patience and neglect to humble myself.
I don’t think she wants help. However, your input has made this thread enjoyable. It has been fun trying to come up with various proofs for a spherical earth, and you have been helpful.

Says who ? @prodromos has helped me understand flight paths on a globe which in turn helps me to figure out why F/E's say the opposite.

Don't you remember, that this has been explained before? The olive branches represent peace, not Antarctica.

The Ouroboros snake represents the cycle of life, not Antarctica.

Why pick the UN symbol and the snake? Why not claim that a hula hoop or a quoit or a wedding ring represent Antarctica? There are plenty of things that are ring-shaped, but they don't mean that Antarctica encircles the earth.

I don't know what it is with you. If this was truly the case, then you should be shelving your flat earth belief for the moment and give serious thought to work through the issue that @prodromos highlighted.

But instead you post how the laurel around the UN logo allegedly likens a snake. That's just irrelevant nonsense. And the laurel on the logo does not encircle the whole earth, only part of it. And it's obviously a laurel made of olive branches, not a snake. So your allegation hasn't the slightest bit of credibility.

Start looking at the facts, not the conspiracy theories. I know it's hard for you but the world has been created by God with actual facts for us to investigate and figure out. Maths works because God created it. Physics works because God created the universe to work according to the laws of physics.
