It was pretty tight for the Jags to land at Cosford (3700’) with a brake chute it was possible to stop in 2000-2500’ and the temporary cable made it legal but it definitely focused the mind.
How would it be for a Tornado? Is reverse thrust enough to stop in that distance without relying on the cable?
If indeed they are destined for Cosford, my feeling is that they will be road moved but I’m happy to be proven wrong.
