The Earth is a perfect sphere; the polar and equatorial radii are exactly equal to 3,440 NM.
The Earth is an oblate spheroid; the polar radius is approximately 80 NM (1.2%) shorter than the equatorial radius.
Question 2
An aircraft departs from position A (60°N, 010°E) and flies due East along the parallel of latitude to position B (60°N, 020°E). What is the distance flown along this parallel?
600 NM
300 NM
520 NM
