The snag, as I discovered, comes when something is not quite right and you have failed to detect it. There is absolutely no room for error and, at a certain stage of either takeoff or landing, you are committed and there is no room to change your mind. Graham Singleton summed it up very accurately. And the truth is that there is simply no room for error. If you are lucky you will never need that room – but … but … but … but … My advice has to be, find yourself a longer strip! In round figures I would be happy with 550m in an ideal world of green farm fields. Europa Club, 2002-3 Like pilots, Webmasters aren’t perfect.
