Crossing Military Arrester Gear
Arriving at a joint civil / military base in Southern France yesterday I was advised that the arrester gear was raised 7 cms above the runway.
I elected to land between the 2 gears, 1 at the touchdown end and the other at the stop end and taxi over the stop end gear very slowly, less than 10 kts GS.
I couldn't find any info in the AOM or Ops Manual about trampling arrester gear but can't see that my little airliner is designed to cross them at speed, especially when a CHAG (Chain Arrester Gear) is a variation on a QE2 anchor chain!
Any opinions or definitive references for info?
