Size of the fs2002 world.

Postby jford74 » Sat May 29, 2004 11:25 pm

Figuring that they used the same parameters for the game as in real life, the entire surface area of the world is 154,161,012 square nautical miles. This is taking into account the limits of N89' 30" and S89' 30". It would take an aircraft flying with a ground speed of 400 knots: 43 days, 23 hours, and 54 minutes, assuming each square nautical mile was only crossed once..

Wow! Was that a boredom thing or something? How did you figure that out, anyway?
