ABZ Runway extension

RW extension will be to the North. This is frequently the take off direction due to prevailing wind being Easterly or westerley and less commonly from the south . Backtracking will not be a big issue. I have yet to see much of a queue at ABZ at any time of day so doubt there will be much delay. ABZ handles aroun 2M pax and delays are more likley to be caused by intesive Heliops than backtracking A/C. 150m is required for 737-800 apparently. No doubt MO'L and his goons will be the net beneficiaries.
