Sal, This has to be my most non-related KR posting I've made. :o) Well, it's close to Friday, anyway. Which direction the KR is pointed is not relevant to the question of which is closer. I doubt whether two KRs are exactly the same length, so we would have to define at which points of the two fuselages they are determined to "be passing each other".

KRA - KRB WEST COAST FLIGHT PROBLEM If the question was "Which KR will be closer to the West Coast when they meet?" The answer would be KRA because his tail would be closer to the West Coast. But the question was "Which KR will be closer to the West Coast when they pass each other? The answer would be KRB because his nose would be closer to the West Coast the moment they pass each other. The speeds are irrelevant in both cases.
