So then how is it that you claim that that is not faster than driving?


Where did I claim that? I said exactly the opposite, in fact.


In an earlier post on this very thread you said...

In practice, I usually just go on flights that are of an acceptable
duration in real time, and then fly them in real time. It's true that
small aircraft take a long time to get anywhere compared to large
jets--but then again they often seem to be much faster than cars (even
though their actual speed over the ground isn't that much greater)."


But I would consider a factor of 2-3 times faster over the ground as
significantly greater.
