Can 747 s and other large planes land at Spokane International Airport?
Yes! Normally, the critical aircraft operation is take-off, and the runway length required is based on: (1) weight of the aircraft, (2) temperature, and (3) elevation. Since the runway length and elevation are constant, the remaining variable factors – weight of the aircraft and air temperature are used to determine the take off distance and how far the aircraft can fly nonstop. Each airline (aircraft operator) has different criteria regarding operating under conditions present at the time of flight.
