    The more you think about it, the better/worse it gets.

    They couldn’t fly from Japan to Hawaii even using the more reasonable route. They were brought nearer using aircraft carriers.

    The Doolittle Raid launched longer-range bombers from US carriers to hit Japan and they were lightened up to the max (dumped their guns and anything else non-essential) and planned from the get-go to ditch over China because flying back would be impossible.

    Being able to fly a bomber halfway across the World was beyond WW2 tech.

      The Brits flew night raids deep into Europe, dropped their payloads and returned home. The Tech definitely DID EXIST.

    If I were launching an air raid on a flat earth, I’d have the planes fly over the edge and under the earth. They wouldn’t be able to see you coming.

    I’ve seen this graphic before, but I thought it was suggested as a joke.

    The earth is not flat nor is it round, it’s like Flappy Bird.

    “South Carolina, USA”… well that’s sadly makes sense. I need to convince my boss to let me be full time remote so I can leave.
