OK, so this is a strange question...
I flew SFO to LHR on Thur / Fri on an overnight flight and according to the Imap we flew just north of the dark side (night side) of the world, the part of the world that the sun doesnt shine on at night. We were treated to some realy spectecular 'sun sets' as we flew over northern Canada and on to Greenland...
Ok, so this is where i am confused.. At 37,000 ft, was i seeing the sun shining on the 'other' side of the world (over the North pole), thats why the sun was on the left of the aircraft when flying West to East?
