Runway Length - hyderpotter - 23-09-2006
The best airport in the UK (Not in London) to take off.
I tryed a airport in scotland, but when I reach 180kts I was coming to the end of the runway and damage my gear.
I hope that Manchester airport is ok.

I just tried taking off a 744 fully loaded from SLLP....whooops.
It's got a 13K ft runway but it's at over 12K ft elevation

Which aircraft? What your Center of Gravity like? Are you close to MTOW? Also, you might want to apply a bit of back pressure on your
stick if your aircraft just isn't taking off most aircraft don't take off of their own.

Maybe try at KJFK or in Miami, or even DFW, the best I would recommend would be Chicago, it has about 10 different runways you can try.

I use the 737 for within the UK, but I need the 747 for flight to usa.
Re: Runway Length - Airliner - 27-09-2006
Most trans-Atlantic flights I'm aware of between US and UK involve:
MAN
9997 x 150 feet, 10000 x 150 feet
LHR
12001 x 148 feet, 12799 x 164 feet
GTW
10364 x 148 feet, 8415 x 148 feet
SHA
10495 x 148 feet (The rest are closed?)
DUB
8652 x 148 feet, 4393 x 200 feet, 6798 x 200 feet
Try those with the B744 or B773.
