The RAF deep maintenance for the VC10 was done at St Athan (5996ft) which presented no problems. BEagle and I landed a K2 there in 2000 and managed to turn off before the intersection which was less than 3000ft in the direction we landed. Obviously, depending on weight and temperature there would be some take off restrictions, but the Ten was designed for such runways.
