The FnF Crew could've easily gotten where they wanted to go if that runway was pointed somewhere else and placed with one end on a coast. There's even a Forza game, Forza Horizon Presents Fast & Furious, that has an achievement for completing it's final mission. That achievement is titled "How long was that runway?" as a reference to the jokes about it's calculated length.

    Well... The circular runway is not as crazy as it initially looks. For instance, there'd be no such thing as a crosswind, you'd always land and takeoff with a headwind. A variable wind direction would of course still be challenging. The biggest downside of course is the footprint, to make the idea realistic, you'd need a truly enormous runway, like 8-10 km diameter. So that means up to 4 times the footprint for just 2 runways. Perhaps you could make up for that by having a second inner - ring runway for domestic/shorter flights, but it would be still a crazy large airport, very wasteful of space.

    Check your facts about the balanced field length. It simply means that TODA, Take Off Distance Available equals ASDA, Accelerate Stop Distance Available. Take Off Distance, TOD, is the distance required to accelerate, lose an engine one second before V1 and then continue the take off to a height of 35 feet above the end of the TODA. Accelerate Stop Distance, ASD, is the distance required to accelerate to V1 and then stop again.

    Related to this, the amount of time to stop is not related to the amount of time to accelerate to that velocity, since the engines accelerate you, but the brakes are what stop you (plus the engines in reverse mode potentially). Those numbers have no need to be (and won't be) exactly equal.

    it's insanely effective indeed, as a commercial pilot I always feel when the spoilers go up, especially whith a smooth landing because they're set to deploy as soon as the ground sensor ... well... senses we are on the ground (that there is pressure on the wheel) and that the wheel is spinning. It's mainly used to increase effectiveness of the brakes, otherwise the wheels would skid too easily (some runway excursions occured only because the spoilers weren't armed and deployed)

  • @christianclose7847
    @christianclose78475 жыл бұрын

    This video was really amazing! There's actually another consideration that you could include in your runway length calculation regarding the balanced field length. I've never actually heard of that term before, quite possibly because most aircraft do not require the same amount of distance to decelerate from V1 to stop as they do to accelerate from start to V1 (or possibly because I live in Canada, not Europe). This is because an aircraft uses its engines to generate the accelerating force while it uses its brakes to generate the decelerating force. In all cases I can think of, an aircraft's braking system is actually capable of generating a greater force than its engines are, meaning the distance required to stop is less than the distance required to take off. Although larger aircraft also have reverse thrust systems capable of contributing to a decelerating force, pilots are not allowed to factor reverse thrust into their V1 calculation because not all conditions will permit using reverse thrust, primarily contaminated runways (This may not be the case everywhere, as not everywhere gets as much snow as Canada, I'm only speaking from my experience). This means in the case of an uncontaminated runway there is a bit of extra margin of error and it also simplifies the calculation to determine stopping distance. For reference, I am not an engineer, I am a student pilot with approximately 200+ hours, all of which are in a C172. Assuming a standard atmosphere (29.92 in-Hg, 15 degrees Celsius, sea level, no wind (sorry for the mixed metric/imperial, blame Canada)), a C172S model has a start to wheels-off distance of 960 feet, while it has a rated wheels-down to stop distance of only 575 feet. This isn't the EXACT same as a V1 calculation, but the theory still applies. For larger aircraft, the difference between the accelerate distance and the decelerate distance is usually larger. This means you can make your V1 decision point a bit further down than half the runway, allowing airports to get away with operating larger aircraft on shorter runways. Let me just reiterate that I loved this video and I mean you no disrespect, I just know you'll find this /half as interesting/ as I do!

    Balanced field length is NOT twice the distance to accelerate to V1. Balanced field length is, in simplified terms, the distance to accelerate to just before V1, lose an engine and stop or equally, continue the takeoff and climb to 35 feet, either option requiring the same distance because that is how V1 is defined. That distance is the balanced field length. It has nothing whatsoever to do with being twice the distance to reach V1.

    Thank you!! I was looking frantically for a response like this, everyone is complaining about a380 not being the largest a/c, but nobody mentioned this... In very simple terms the balanced field has nothing to do with the distance, but with the speeds; From 0 to v1 to 0 (your stopping distance) and from 0 to v1 to “liftoff” (your go distance). When they both have the same distance, it is called balance field. For some perspective, if from 0 to v1 is like “1000m” you can expect v1 to 0 or v1 to liftoff to be “500m”, it is for sure a big amount shorter then reaching the v1, so the distances are never the same :)

    No it's the other way around. It takes less distance to stop than it does to accelerate. The stopping power from the brakes is more than the acceleration power from the engines. This doesn't even account for spoilers (which make the brakes more effective) or thrust reversers.

In addition to the runway closures, aircraft were having trouble cooling the cabins of their planes in the heat. Surface temperatures (including heat reflectivity off of the tarmac) were reaching 60*C. I was able to book a flight out of Tucson to DFW and had time to make the 2 hour drive there and get through security, board and take off before the runways reopened at Sky Harbor that evening.

    I am surprised Denver international airport is not mentioned here. It is a relatively young airport, and was built a long ways outside of the city in order to accommodate massive expansion. Currently it has four parallel north/south runways, all at least 3,658m long, and the longest at 4,877m. It also has two east/west parallel runways, both 3,658m in length. The airport is designed to be able to expand to six north/south runways and four east/west runways. Another very neat design feature is that it is possible to taxi between the terminal and each runway without the need to cross other runways, which makes the airport far safer as the risk of runway incursions is significantly reduced.

For example, the ball can be thrown further, and in soccer, in South America, the national team of Bolivia play at 3,637 metres (11,932 ft) above sea level, making it one of the highest football stadiums in the world. Many visiting teams protest that the altitude gives Bolivia an unfair advantage against opponents. Same would apply to every other aspect, including aviation.

    @@MrCheddahcheese Actually high altitude airport are at a massive disadvantage. For takeoff, the thinner air reduces both engine thrust performance as well as wing lift and control surface effectiveness. For landings, the same final approach speed is actually faster due to the change in pressure /density, known as ‘true airspeed’. So an indicated speed of 130 knots at sea level is 130 knots, at 5000’ elevation an indicated speed of 130 knots could be 150 knots or more of true airspeed. This results in longer landing distances to bleed off the speed and braking energy.
