first question, it s D.

55 degree 27*60=3300 miles(*2.2)=over 6000km

second question:???need more datas and I do not think the JAA ask for rhumb line distances, the formula is too long.

third questions:

Difference of long.=180 degree
180*60 miles*cos 60=5400 miles

latitude:total distance 8 *60=480 miles

distance square=480 square+5400 square=5421 miles

no right given answer!!!??? closest one is D.(correction:wrong answer)

(correction: fly over the pole, it s faster!!!)
