"The idea here is that if an aircraft if flying at 500 mph across the ground and the earth is rotating, it is actually moving around curvature faster when it is flying east then when it is flying west. And the result of the centrifugal force generated should be measureable. Object should appear lighter when the aircraft is flying east compared to when it is flying west.
And I repeated this experiment myself numerous time flying east and west, and also flying north and south for a comparison. And the results are in my videos on my channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/Wolfie6020/featured)."
Measurement of the 500-gram std weight during the flight
On the left Westbound from Sydney to Broome, and on the right eastbound from Perth to Sydney

Why don't we feel the Earth spinning?, by Dr. Becky
Dr. Becky says, "only when the speed changes do you feel actual movement..."
The Earth rotates on its axis at 1,000 miles per hour (at the equator) - so why don't we feel it? Because the body only feels when an acceleration or deceleration in speed takes place. Since the Earth rotates at a constant speed, we don't feel that motion.
