The Earth is said to spin 1000 mph west to east at the equator. Such movement would have to be factored in for rifles, canons, planes, and anything else attempting to reach a destination through the air. That's because the Earth would be moving underneath any object airborne 
 
Most of the following calculations are based on positioning at the equator where Earth is said to be spinning at 1000 mph. That speed decreases toward the poles and would modify the calculations.
 
And no, the atmosphere is not moving along at the same pace as the Earth. I'll get to that later.
 
 
CANONS
"The following experiment has been tried many times, and the reasonable deductions from it are entirely against any theory of earth's motion: A loaded cannon was set vertical by plumb-line and spirit-level and fired. The average time the ball was in the air was 28 seconds. On several occasions the ball returned to the mouth of the cannon, and never fell more than 2 feet from its base. Now, let us see what the result would be if the earth were a rapidly rotating sphere. The ball would partake of two motions, the one from the cannon vertical, and the other from the earth, from west to east. While it had been ascending, the earth, with the cannon, would have moved significantly. In descending it would have no impulse from the earth's motion or from the cannon, and would fall in a straight line, but during the time it were falling, the earth, with the cannon, would have travelled on, and the ball would fall (allowing the world's rotation to be 600 miles per hour in England) more than a mile and a half behind the cannon."--E. Skellam 1893
 
No matter what direction canon balls are fired, North West, South, or East, the distance and trajectory relative to the Earth is always the same. If the Earth is moving underneath projectiles that would not be possible.
 
If a canon were to be put on a moving platform and fired forward, the speed and distance of the cannonball would be increased by the speed and momentum of the platform. If fired backward, the opposite would happen. The speed of the platform would be subtracted from the speed and distance of the cannonball.
 
The Earth makes no such difference and thus could not be a moving platform.
 
 
BULLETS
Snipers can hit targets 1.5 miles away. But there is no sniper training in any manual for Earth spin or a supposed Coriolis effect (swirling of the atmosphere due to Earth's rotation).
 
 
ARTILLERY, MISSILES, ROCKETS
The same above arguments can be made for artillery shells, missiles, and rockets. Nothing in the air could reach its destination without calculating not only the spin but Earth's orbit and movement through the universe at 2.8 million mph. No such calculations are ever made and yet things reach their focused targets.
 
Not only are the calculations not made, they couldn't be without a computer of incomprehensible power ciphering the effect of multiple different movements the Earth is said to be taking.
 
 
PLANES
A plane flying at 500 mph W to E would actually be moving 1,500 mph relative to the Earth and would reach its destination 3X faster than scheduled. Most commercial planes would also be unlikely to withstand such speed.
 
A plane flying at 500 mph from E to W would never reach its destination because that destination is moving ahead of it at 1000 mph. The longer it flew, the farther away its destination would be: fly for one hour to a destination 500 miles away and it would still be 500 miles away.
 
Pilots do not experience landing strips rotating toward, away, or sideways.

PLANES FLYING NORTH TO SOUTH PROVE THE EARTH IS NOT SPINNING.
 
The Earth is said to be spinning 1000 mph at the equator. At the north pole the spin is negligible.
 
If a plane took off from the North Pole and flew directly south to a location on the equator, it would have to slide sideways at 1000 mph from west to east in order to land.
 
That's because at the plane flies south, the globe's speed underneath increases to 1000 mph at the equator destination.
 
If it didn't do this impossible feat, and just flew straight south to its destination, this would happen.

Planes are not designed to fly/slide sideways, nor can they at 1000 mph. Nor do planes constantly tilt and turn to keep up with Earth spin and stay on course.
 
This doesn't take into consideration that the plane would be flying at 30,000 ft. or so. At such height the plane would be traveling in a greater circumference than the Earth and would have to fly sideways even faster to keep up with the Earth.
 
In defense, spinning globe believers say there is a Coriolis effect moving everything in the air in unison with the Earth spinning. However, there is no evidence that the sky is Velcro attached to the Earth, as this real-time depiction of multiple different wind patterns proves.

​Listen to how planes flying north to south creates an insoluble dilemma for modern cosmology believers.  


​HELICOPTERS
Helicopters would be able to hover and let an East destination come to them at 1000 mph. They would also be lost if they would just hover in place and try to land where they took off.
 
 
CRITTERS
Birds, insects, and all other critters that ever lift off the ground do not get discombobulated with spinning ground, trees, bushes, or mountains.
 

EARTH SPIN DOESN’T CREATE JUMPING AND RUNNING SPEED RECORDS
If you are a track athlete running or long jumping on a spinning ball Earth, be sure to be facing West on the equator.
​
That's because the Earth would be moving backward under your feet like a treadmill at 1000 mph. If long jumping, the sand pit would be moving at 1000 mph under your whole body.
 
If you sprinted at 25mph headed east and jumped into the air with a hang time of about one second while the ground was zooming under you at 1000 mph, you would land about 1,500 feet forward. That would beat the world long jump record by about 1,470 feet.

Heck, you could stand still and jump into the air and beat that record by about the same amount.
 
If you jumped facing east while the Earth was moving 1000 mph ahead of you, you'd be about 1,475 feet behind where you lifted off. Embarrassing.
 
Sprinting would create similar astounding results due to the air time with each stride.
 
But except for the wind, no athlete has ever noticed any increased or decreased speed or distance jumped no matter what direction they faced.
 
 
DOES THE ATMOSPHERE MOVE ALONG WITH THE EARTH?
The claim that the atmosphere moves along with the Earth is the only rebuttal to the above.
 
How could that be when we can feel the slightest breeze, Earth tremor, and sonic boom, yet not the slightest from Earth spinning and gyrating at 2.8 million mph?
 
Then we have things such as this to contend with, as detailed in Part 2.

We can look at the sky on any given day and see clouds moving without any regard for an Earth spin. In many cases, clouds can be moving in different directions at different altitudes.
 
Not only that, but here you can see winds going faster than Earth's spin in some locations on the planet, and slower elsewhere. Click on to see this going on in real-time with an interactive globe.

There is no experimental proof that a ball surrounded by gas in a vacuum can spin 1000 mph and hold the gas in place as it spins. Nor can there be found any scientist who would even attempt such an implausible experiment.
 
A physics professor sums up the absurdity of an atmosphere glued to Earth: 

​"But we know of no body the parts of which have much less connection with each other than is the case with the air. The air-layer next to the earth, really dragged along by the communicated motion, would not be able to communicate its motion to the layers above it, for the simple reason that it stands in no connection with them. These upper layers must therefore remain in their place, or (which would signify the same thing) would apparently flow westward with the same rapidity with which the earth is said to rotate to the east. Now, since a point on the equator (if the earth rotates on its axis in a day) must move eastward at the rate of 1,250 feet a second, the air would similarly move 1,250 feet westward in a second, which would more than ten times surpass the velocity of the most fearful hurricane ... We cannot perceive the rotation of the earth in any way. We cannot demonstrate it! There are no air-currents which we can justly regard as -or even suppose to be - consequences of this rotation. These facts ought to be proof enough against the existence of a rotation of the earth .... Must it not appear almost absurd in us, preoccupied by what they have taught us in school, to accept a theory of the rotation of the earth which neither is, nor can be, proven? Must we not wonder at the readiness of the learned of nearly the entire world, from the time of Copernicus and Kepler, to accept the conception of the rotation of the earth -and then search afterwards, now for nearly three and a half centuries, for arguments to maintain it, but of course without being able to find them?" —Dr. Carl Schoepffer, "The Earth Stands Fast" (1869)

​TAKEAWAY 
Everything on Earth proceeds as if the ground under our feet is at rest. No evidence exists proving the contrary.
