Flat earthers explain this
I flew into Anchorage on a rare clear day. The pilot pointed out that you could see Denali a full 155 miles away! We were south of Anchorage on approach. As we descended, the mountain quickly disappeared below the horizon when we got down to around 20,000 feet. Even though we were getting CLOSER to the mountain.

If the earth’s not round, please explain that.

Re: Flat earthers explain this
When I first became interested in the flat-earthers in the early 1970s, I was surprised to learn that flat-earthism in the English-speaking world is and always has been entirely based upon the Bible. I have since assembled and read an extensive collection of flat-earth literature. The Biblical arguments for flat-earthism that follow come mainly from my reading of flat-earth literature, augmented by my own reading of the Bible.

I'll explain it so evev a dummy can understand.

Flat earthers suffer from a dibitatating mental illness similar to transgenderism, and like trannies, they get pissed off to the point of attacking people when you don't live in their fantasy land.

It's called perspective.

If the earth was really round you wouldn't been able to see that mountain at all from that distance, no matter how high up you went.

Wrong. There are line of sight calculators online. It’s well within the distance you can see from 35,000 feet…. Especially since it’s a 20,000 foot mountain.

lmao

Of course, conflate a belief in a flat earth with trannies.

Typical glowtard tactics.

Also what you describe in bold sounds more like what a typical muslim does.

So if it's not far enough away to be behind curvature, why would it then disappear behind the "horizon" when you went lower in altitude?

Does that really explain a curved earth or just an effect from your eyes perspective?
