Sure thing! So we start off with the circumference of the earth in km around the poles and divide that by 360° which gives us the distance in km for 1° of change in latitude. We then divide that result again by 60 to get the kilometers per minute of arc, which gives you the result of 1,852. And since 1 minute is 1 Nautical Mile, we now know that 1 NM = 1,852 km 😉
Hi pilot Johnathan quick question I’m a High school senior and Ik I want to fly what is some of your best advice or something you would do differently I want to be a pilot so bad thank you for your advice
Hi, getting into aviation can be hard, but perseverance pays off! Just don't give up and keep following your dream - and work hard to achieve it! It is tough in the industry right now, but it'll get better again too, I'm sure of that
Could you elaborate on the first fact what are you dividing by 60?
Anyways great vid wish you had more time to make more videos
Sure thing!

1 degree = 60 minutes of arc
& 1 degree has y km
So
y km /60 min of arc = km for one minute of arc
Brother can u make such theoritical videos more? it will helpfull soo much
Yes, new video about Principles of Flight coming today!
