Extending runway - stopway allowed?
As you may know, DUB has a runway of 8,650', which is considerably less than the required length for a 340/777 at MTOW, particularly in Summer. I was just wondering how an extension to a more reasonable length could be brought about at a reasonable cost. Could an extension, say at the 10 end, be a stopway, assuming most departures are on 28? How has this been achieved at other airports? Can stopways be used as part of T/O distance and is there a problem with them supporting an MTOW aircraft?
