Flair 737 overruns runway at YKF
Skies Magazine | November 25, 2022
.
Runway 08/26 at YKF is a 7,003-foot by 148-ft asphalt runway. In the summer of 2021, the airport widened the runway from 145 ft to 148 ft in order to better accommodate larger aircraft arriving and departing.
.
Judging from photos that accompany the Skies article, this incident might have been less likely to have ended in an excursion if the 21,009 sq ft of asphalt laid in 2021 had been used to extend the runway by 144 ft - instead of to widen it by 3 ft.
