And I do understand that the declared distances are the only ones that can be used, but when distances stated are the absolute minimum requirement, surely additional paved distance would be taken into consideration by the decision makers.
The total length of the paved strip is about 1950m with the pavement beyond the end of the 1604m LDA measuring 180m on 05 and 135m on 23. On 23 there is additional unpaved RESA of some 160m.
