A plane is flying from one airport to another. Would it be better to use a globe or a flat paper map to find the shortest distance for the flight?

Answer:

Using a globe and some string might be more convenient. A great circle is the shortest path between any two points on the earth's surface.

I hope I helped! ^-^
