According to this guy who was interviewed last night on Greta’s show(I think he worked for NTSB) he said that a 777 can easily land at an airstrip that is 3500 feet..he said that can be done easily..the problem is if they want to take off again, that would be a BIG problem, why..because you need a lot of fuel to take off and since this is such a small airspace by the time the plane takes off half the fuel supply would have been used, they would have to stop somewhere bigger and try taking off again
Thanks.
Even a 3500 foot landing strip is pretty long. If it were a matter of hijacking, even if the plane was just sitting there...looks to me like it would be in sight and SOMEONE (Not hollering...just don’t know HTML) would give a shout out.
