The flight followed a line just northwest of most of the urban area. I hadn't realized till that night that the Dayton and Cincinnati municipal areas had pretty nearly merged. This was at least ten years ago. Their's very little visible open space between them nowadays.
Had to google-map it and heck, that makes for a massive 100Km long city. Amazing.
Guess this can be true for many sister cities in US. Not to mention LAX alone.
But hey, you folks have scheduled flights for a 60 miles hops?
