I used Google Earth's measuring tool to get an estimate of the distance
from Cold Bay, Ak to Midway Atoll and it measured the distance at about
2000 sm, or ~1700 nm. Just curious, but what charts or tools did you use
to
establish the 1300 miles estimate?


I wonder if Google Earth uses a great circle measuring method?

I was wondering who was going to pick up on that...

Way to go Morg.
