>>12806422Low quality bait but ill bite i suppose. The "dipping" problem is consistent within the ball model. As the plane moves over the surface of the earth, if the earth is curved, it would require additional force to move in a straight line. The distance from the plane to the ground would be increasing if the plane stayed steady while the ground sloped down, so to "float into outer space" would actually take extra effort. To NOT dip down, you'd hear the planes engines gradually work harder and harder as it climbs forward maintaining its straight line. The "dipping" of the nose occurs naturally, because without extra force lifting it it wont climb any higher. It'll maintain constant elevation, so when the reference point for your elevation (ground) dips, so does the plane. Its just extremely slight. On a tiny dense planet this would be far more noticeable
