Long days back, that was before the invention of flights and all, people had one belief. It's nothing but travelling through Hot air balloon. And it is nowhere different from today. But in olden days, people thought differently. Like rising up in air and stay there for half a day or so would make them shift to some other place. The earth continues to rotate eastwards and people may reach different destination. Quite cheap, isn't it?
That's a wrong notion. It's just their imagination. Actually we dont get separated from our mother earth even if we try to rover in air. We are tightly bonded with earth together even in mid air, as we held up by particles present in air which are also actually participating in this travel. Gravity sticks these particles in the very same place.
Strong evidance for this which I can quote here is the storm or hurricane movement. It wont cover larger distance in one day. i.e. it should have made a round trip along the latitude. You all knew that this wont happen in any of its case.
Take another case, what if we rise up beyond this invisible layer of particles. We are still bounded to earth because of the inertial force make us travel with the speed of earth. And when we come back we would find ourselves where we left initially. This is like jumping inside, on the floor in moving train makes us land in exact place.
Believe me, even I tried this in my younger age and wondered why I wasn't going back when I jump in moving train. Later on I understood this whole concept.
