Sorry my internet is very broken tonight. Had started to reply and it died, again!
But who would drive it for you?Could be, but I'd much rather play with a normally-aspirated V12 than the small V8 they turboed to a fare-thee-well in the '40.
Now me, I want the 599GTB "Fiorano" ...

I want answers!
Now here's my problem with this. If the earth is flat then the ships just fall off the edge, no horizon, we have a cliff. So how do the ships that went over the cliff return? Because the Navy and CG seem to have that part wired. Wonder if @GreatwhiteNorth knows the secret?

Does anyone notice the sun's rays pointing out to the left and right? From 93000000 miles away how is we can see those if they arent pointed at us?

That's a thoughtful question. If Antarctica is the southern edge that runs around the world, think of a dinner plate it's not perfectly flat and your gravy does not fall off of it. The gravy being the oceans and the mashed potatoes being the land.

@curious2garden The ship returns, back into view just like something that is far away cant be seen until it gets closer, the sun and moon do the same thing. First the top of the object will come into view.

Read through that and disprove it.
I will be waiting.
I have a feeling this is going to be like banging my head against a brick wall....

Go back about 20 or thirty pages it's all there. Which point is your favorite and we can take them again one at a time.

Antarctica seems designed to keep us away, like a lion exhibit at the zoo with the 20 foot trench.

Ill tell you what show me the edge of the earth and you win.
Now I want to see a sheer drop off into abyss.
Why don't we hear of people falling off of the "flat earth" or ANY pictures of it. Because it is not a flat world.

Just thought of a simple experiment that you can do to explain this. Two actually. The one I'll use is a merry-go-round. If you get on one that's moving a a good clip, let's say 20mph, and you toss a ball into the air, it doesn't go backward and instead drops right back into your hand. Why? Because the ball is moving 20mph just as you are. Same with your bullet scenario. The earth, you, and the bullet are all moving 1000mph. I cannot make it any simpler, and it's an experiment you can try anytime. Would also work in your car moving at 100mph. Please say you get it...
Edit - I see @Gary Goodson already answered this. Nice job, Gary! Did he replay bullshit! I haven't gotten there yet...

So if i fling the ball at 20 mph in the direction i am going on the merry go round, how fast does the ball fly?

Approximately 40 when it leaves your hand. Same if you were going 100mph in a car and you threw a ball. The wind resistance would slow the ball down immediately if thrown forward from the car, but for a second the ball would be traveling in excess of 100mph when measured from a stationary perspective, like a radar gun from the side of the road...

ok, I agree. and if I threw the ball behind me it would travel a lessor distance right, due to my inertia at 20 miles per hour. Am I getting this?
