Hi again all,

Yes that was my old A319CJ. Biggin is absolutely no problem at all (we could depart at MTOW if needed and blast off across the pond) - City is a problem. The runway is plenty long enough but the slope is not possible within certification criteria. Airbus are working on certifying the A318 at City at the moment but I believe that this needs some flap-tweaking.

Hi Barcli - the YellowBird is being repainted (even yellower) at the moment but we should be up and running again shortly.

at light weights you can get the landing distance req down to 1000 mtrs

As you know; you can land anywhere once!

cheers all
