By analyzing the flight course and spheroid,the term imitates a flight course drawing by computer,and establishes a mathematical model to prove that A hours could be savedin flying in the new flight course.By analyzing the model,we calculate the spherical distance in MATLAB programming method.As to Model 1,we work out the spherical distance in solid geometry,it turns out that it only costs 10 8734 hours to fly from Beijing to Detroit,while 14 7793 hours by the original flight course,and at least 3 9095 hours is saved.As to Model 2,the spherical distance by integral is worked out,finally it concludes that it saves 4 29891 hours.
