Thumbs up

I used 36R for T/O at DFW the other day with the new embedded lights operational. As we were holding in position, they crossed a 757 upfield and the lights immedialty turned red and it would have been impossible for us not to note that takeoff would have been unsafe.

A most reassuring system for those occasional 300/300/300 RVR takeoffs.
