Wow! Okay, first flight; London Heathrow to San Francisco; 11 hours and 5358 miles. Notice that to get to the west coast of America, we fly north over Scotland. Why is that?? Also we depart at 13:45 (quarter to two in the afternoon) but arrive at 17:05 (five past five) - a duration of only 3 hours for a 11 hour flight. Why is that??Saturday, 26 January 2008
