It’s about the theory of relativity. The clocks are not slower in the aircraft, but the time in moving objects is slower at higher speed. This effect can be measured when comparing clocks in the airplane with clocks on the ground, because the aircraft is faster. But this is only about extremely small time units.

All watches count vibrations, whether they are atomic clocks or pendulum clocks. Vibrations are, however, dependent on other physical conditions, e.g., on gravity.

One second is a man-defined unit. No matter whether you are. a pendulum clock on Mount Everest or at sea level, the second is always the same length, only the number of vibrations within a time unit can change.

To think that the number of vibrations per unit of time is constant and that instead the unit of time changes (time dilation) is a mistake of thinking. Einstein was also not protected from thinking errors.

In fact, also a person who has given the correct answer and does not attempt a time difference of a clock with approx. 900 kmh is on the move to explain with relativistic effects – LT results in a time delay of 0.0000045% – this is definitely not measurable.

you can see the values derived from the relativity principle here: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hafele-Keating-Experiment#Hafele-Keating-Experiment

that was even measurable in the 70s.

Time dilation is the sense-free method of adapting the second to different vibration conditions (or event conditions).

One second is not only the time unit in which a certain number of oscillations takes place, but also under which other physical conditions the original measurement has taken place. If the general conditions are left out, then the term “time dilation” becomes a content similar to religion.

you do not use pendulum clocks.

(the pendulum duration of a watch would, by the way, not depend on its speed relative to an observer (as it does in the SRT). Moreover, it would go more slowly and not faster (as it does in the ART). there is no reason at all (apart from the theory of relativity) why a watch (whichever design) should go faster or slower just after the predictions of the relativity theory.)

that natural laws do not cover the 70s.

time dilatation was confirmed experimentally even earlier, also on elemental particles.

The fact that the oscillation duration of clock pendulums differs as a function of gravity has already been recognized by the occurrence of the pendulum clocks.

The sensation in the 70s was that the laws of nature also apply to other vibrations, which many took to say that only the time itself would change.

It’s time dilatation. This is an effect of space time that Albert Einstein has already described in his special theory of relativity. This effect was demonstrated in 1971 with Hafele-Keating experiment.

This was the Hafele-Keating Experiment, more among https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hafele-Keating-Experiment

It was about Mr. Einstein and his theories, which were confirmed experimentally.

Then, for the first time, clean and reputable, which tests are supposed to prove this. Unfortunately, in my eyes. As a schematic representation of Einstein’s theories, trains or aircraft are used to illustrate them.

I don’t understand the word ‘deviated’, the corresponding correct form is ‘deviated’.

How do you know what the right form of a word is that you don’t understand?

Because they move faster than clocks on the ground (larger radius to the middle of the earth).

I guess the tests were wrong or the clocks would have been slower.

Very unbelievable, because then the instruments of the pilots would be sneaking.
