The table below can be useful in planning a cross-country flight as it shows all distances between all possible destinations. For example, from Fredericton it is about the same distance by air to either Charlottetown or Halifax and the distance between those cities is 86 NM.The table entries are sorted by distance (NM) from the first listed airport (CYFC).

NOT FOR NAVIGATION --- Distances in NM   CYFC CYHZ CYYG
FREDERICTON INTL (NB)  CYFC - 140 144
HALIFAX STANFIELD INTL (NS)  CYHZ 140 - 86
CHARLOTTETOWN (PE)  CYYG 144 86 -

Note that 1 nautical mile (NM) = 6071 feet = 1.151 statute miles = 1.852 km

The map below shows the cross country journey in the order entered above, showing distance (NM) and true track for each leg in the direction of the arrow. To make a trip complete, include the home airport at the end. Observe that some airports like Halifax (CYHZ) may be located far from the city center, as is very apparent on this map.
