Heroine Plane in the South Pacific

Filed under: Psychology

Found an interesting website about flight traveling plans. You can put in 2 destinations and the site will show you the prefered air traffic route.

I tried leaving from a random aiport in Nigeria and head over to Australia. The course plotted was a generally southern course that cut well below India and then swung back up to Sydney.

I then tried from Nigeria to Santiago, Chile (the furthest away country in South America). That flight flew directly across the Atlantic over Brazil and into Chile.

The reason why this is so interesting is that we know approximately where our Lostie’s are. They were 3,000 miles or so on their way between Sydney and LA when they changed course for about 1,000 miles heading towards Fiji. That drops them right smack in the middle of nowhere.

My point is, this plane would to have been waaaaaay off course if it ended up on our island. There is no reason, no destination, that makes sense for a travel route for this plane.

Is this another example of a planted memory? I think so.

Here is the link if you want to try some travel routes yourself: Air Traffic Routes
