Head winds when relating to aviation?

Elevation

619 Nautical miles equates to about 712 miles?

Knots when referring to "Teachers with Ropes?"

Meridian?

Dream?


Am I getting warm?? lol

NightMARE, it gives me the chills. Butt don't bank on it that I doe know watt I'm talking about. My lines and eyes get crossed when I get feeling low. Fear dries my mouth when I see spooky trees reaching OUT. It gives me little prickly goose bumps but then I put on some young Elvis music and dream of prancing, neigh, frolicking about the meadow like a kitten chasing a butterfly. Then I wake up and realize I had been sleep walking and stepped in a "cow" pie. Won't one of you ring my door bell "in case" I am napping again?

619 nautical miles takes me past San Antonio. It hits Houston though.
I used a circle using GE for this.
"Houston, we have a problem."

 Santa Fe, NM to Stinson Municipal Airport, (SSF), San Antonio, Texas is a bit over 712, (619 Nautical), miles one-way. - Great military history a long with the Stinson Family as well.

you'all are to smart for me.

Well, my GE still shows the same after a restart of my comp.
To the GE placement for San Antonio it shows 611 miles, 531 nautical miles. Even adjusting for the airports isn't going to account for 90 miles nautical.
But then my old comp uses Windows Vista, which isn't supported by GE anymore. That might be the cause.

OH!,

I think  "circle" is possibly an indication of 'the end is ever drawing nigh.'  IOW...... a circle doesn't have an ending, and 'nigh' could actually indicate the same thing.

She called and said, Hi Forrest, I want you to come down here to my

garage sale." Yeah, sure. She was in San Antonio and I was in Santa Fe.

I said, "Josette, wake up, you're having a nightmare. Did you really ask

me to come 619 Nautical miles great circle route against the wind just to

attend your garage sale? What're you selling besides tamales?"

Yes the circle is the starting point to your wwwh and you will end up back where you started meaning there's 2 ways in there

[goldwatch]

OH!, that is making a lot of sense.

Here's an interesting thing...
That circle goes over Jojo Mountain, just a little to the west.
The name Josette is related to "Jo", the female form. (Josette is a French name, a variant of Josephine which is a Hebrew name meaning "Jehovah increases".)
Is this confirmation?

I guess nobody caught this. It is 619 nautical miles one way. Why does he say great circle?

Sometimes it isn't what Mr. Fenn says, It's what he whispers in words.

Great circle route just means shortest distance point to point. 619 nautical miles is actually too far by about 100 statute miles, so the distance is indeed screwy. Should be about 612 statute miles one-way. It's as if he erroneously (though deliberately) stuck in nautical.

you hit on part of the solve here, IMO, abbreviation(s). Great circle could be hinting at the Great O, Oh. Omega. Not part of my solve though. Oh, keep making pupils of us, good stuff. You get those 'cepts eating peas? Good god man

Great circles are easily identified on a globe based on the lines of latitude and longitude. Each line of longitude, or meridian, is the same length and represents half of a great circle. This is because each meridian has a corresponding line on the opposite side of the Earth. When combined, they cut the globe into equal halves, representing a great circle.

 I agree that he probably added "nautical" on purpose. The sentence wouldn't be questionable if he left it out. I didn't know what great circle route meant in the beginning, I automatically assumed round trip. Why would he give one-way statistics when he has to fly back? The story would of made more sense if he stated 1,238 great circle route. The 619 has to be the hint.

Hi OH! While lines of longitude are indeed great circles (as is the equator), these are special cases. When you fly from, say, LA to London, you fly the great circle route of course, which will take you well north of the latitude of London. So it ~looks~ funny on a Mercator map, but perfectly normal on a globe.

The question is whether 619 is a hint or not. Doesn't appear to have any relevance to my solution (nor does 712). Area code for San Diego was what jumped into my head.

[voxpops]

The biggest hint is "nautical", but the number also has significance in my solve.

Is “night- mare” the same as “dark- horse”?
