Aviatrr 0 #28 February 6, 2004 QuoteYes, to both questions. The runway has been lengthened. ltdiver By how much? According to Airnav.com...updated last on Dec 25, 2003.. Runway 15/33 Dimensions: 5100 x 50 ft. / 1554 x 15 m Surface: asphalt/dirt, in poor condition N 1900 FT DIRT POOR COND; REMAINING 3200 FT ASPH FAIR COND. Runway edge markings: /33 NON-STD SIZE NRS; DASHED CNTRLN ON PAVED SFC ONLY. No published weight limits there...but I'm sure there is in the A/FD. In any case, it's a very small runway for a DC-9....which may be why they're planning on 60 jumpers - to limit weight for performance reasons.

riddler 0 #29 February 12, 2004 On the rear steps - from the dz.com article it looks like they are to be removed for skydiving. Does that mean that there'll be a lightweight cover over the exit for the flight up? How wide is the exit? I'm thinking 60 jumpers + narrow door + fast jet = a couple of passes over the dz to get everyone out.Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
