I didn't say I can't understand it, I said it seems like hogwash although I didn't read all of it.
Physics is not all that hard to understand if someone can explain it well enough.
I don't even need to have full understanding of all the principles he uses though to suspect that he is using them wrong.

Take this for example:

Let us again venture into thought experiment: eject some pods towards the earth from one such of our imaginary satellites at regular intervals along our orbit such that they are in free fall. Again, we can assume these are straight lines extending below to a translatable location on the surface of the earth, its geolocation. We can say these lines are normal to the trajectory of the satellite and they are normal to the ground, thus making the lines parallel. Since the orbit is straight, and the orbit relates directly to the geographical locations it is above, we have come a long way to show the planet is also flat.
This is almost circular reasoning because the trajectories are only parallel if the earth is flat, yet he says their parallelism proves that the earth is flat. If he had some actual proof that the trajectories are parallel it might warrant further consideration.
I really don't have the time to get into all the details though, you can probably just read the comments for better dismissals.
