A flight distance calculator uses the Haversine formula to compute the great-circle distance between two geographic coordinates — the shortest surface path aircraft follow.

공식

Haversine distance = 2R × arcsin(√[sin²(Δlat/2) + cos(lat1)×cos(lat2)×sin²(Δlon/2)]) | R = 6,371 km

단계별 가이드

1Haversine formula uses lat/lon in radians
2Earth mean radius = 6,371 km
3Great-circle is shorter than flat-map distance on long routes
4Estimated flight time = Distance / 900 km/h (typical cruise)
