One land mile equals 5280 feet. One nautical mile equals 6076.12 feet. So one nautical mile equals 1.15 land miles.
No. If it did, you'd need a 5-mile driveway at your house, but a jet fighter could land on a 2-foot runway.
A 4-minute mile means an average speed of 15 miles per hour.

The current 1 mile land speed record of 763.035 set in 1997, held by ThrustSSC still stands so it has not been broken.
Second in land speed only to the cheetah, the pronghorn can make 55 mph- for half a mile.
The current ultimate land speed record was set in 1997 at 763 mph which is recorded at top speed through a 1 mile speed trap. The run is then ran in the other direction within 1 hour. The average of both runs is the official record.
