Now come on... You should know by now that in journo-speak, all areas of an airport are defined as "runway"; and at all times, aircraft "hurtle", "career", "charge" or "lurch".
...with the exception of the airspace above it; from which aircraft either 'spiral out of control' or, (my personal favourite), 'plummet'.
