Solution

The correct option is D 30 south Lat., 130 West long.
This airplane taking off from N30 E50 would have to be a seaplane or floatplane. That location is in the Persian Gulf off the coast of Iran.
The opposite side on the globe would be S30 (the other side of the equator) and W130 or south of the Pitcairn Islands in the South Pacific.
