Lets say its tuesday and you want to fly to the exact opposite spot on Earth. Will you land there on different days if you fly there East or West? 
Give me a couple days to think about it..
My brain is still tired from trying to work out a bunch of paperwork issues lately for the containers. 
Landing would be problematic since the spot on the opposite point of the earth is in the Indian Ocean off the coast of western Australia. As for the answer to the question, if it takes the exact same transit time in either direction, you get there the same day at the same time.

"Before" It was actually pretty clean, had original owners manual, etc, etc. Original owner was in Huntington Beach. Pretty loaded thing too.. The reason I bought it in the begining was had a customer looking for a clean pair of power window doors for his back in Oz. A rust free front clip for the 80's models ones still sell pretty easy too and get a decent dollar. I just...as with all them, buy 3/4 and 1 ton ones (be it trucks or suburbans) to get a 454 combo to sell This one had a heck of a bonus though! It is a factory 454/turbo 400, 4.10 diff thing (with front and rear air, tilt, cruise, power windows, including tailgate, etc,etc) and after doing the deal (cheap  ) I happened to be looking at the dash and asked the guy what the odd little switch was. He just commented it was the over drive unit.  No mentioned in the craigslist ad, or him saying anything before....so I peeked under while my buddy was just getting him to sign the title off,etc. and it has a gear venders overdrive on the back of the T400.
