Coriolis dictates if the earth spins (rotating reference frame) then ALL objects in the inertial reference frame (helicopters, hot air balloons, drones) will be observed to deviate 15 degrees per hour to the west...We NEVER observe this in reality!
To add extra nails in the coffin of the globe, the sun, moon and stars are also claimed to move due to the rotation of the earth underneath them. So when the sun (in the inertial reference frame) is viewed by a drone (also in the inertial reference frame) it should never appear to move, because it moves from the earth turning underneath it right? Well as we all know, in reality we observe sunsets from drones! The Earth Does NOT Spin!
