    I've flown Singapore and Malaysia to Australia on many occasions, its water below all the way and it does share a maritime coast.

    But does the aircraft fly straight without any turns or angles in the line of travel? I didn't see such a straight line on the map.

    (Doesn't mean there aren't any such straight lines of travel- I may have looked at the map wrong. I didn't see any that didn't cross land, though.)

    Edit to add- I looked at Singapore specifically, not Malaysia.

    All aircraft turn, but it is a fairly straight journey over sea.
    Boat journey does not bump into any bits of Indonesia.

    That's not even remotely a straight line! LOL :hilarious:

    Per the OP rules:
    I challenge you to take a ruler and that map and draw a straight line from Singapore to Australia without hitting land belonging to another country. You could almost do it, if your line went through near Bali ... but not quite.

    'Tis a moot point now, though.

    From Ceylon (Sri Lanka) to India.

    The world is round, the map is flat, flying south to Aussie is in an arc, not a straight line.:D

    Somewhere north of Vietnam. Maybe Indo-China, maybe Burma, maybe China. Not quite sure.

    I'm not sure where to play from with that! Starting from the "maybe China" point, I'll travel north, to ...

    Okay! Playing off Uzbekistan, I'll take us to Kyrgyzstan with this with this here 2008 5-som. She's been chewed on the reverse but she's decipherable.
