Rwy Contaminated???
As an MD-80 operator and curious about the LEGALITY in Taking off on a contaminated rwy. No matter all the bla bla bla in penalties reduction on the weight, I havenīt seen in any of my company manuals that the MD has been certify for this (tested) and Iīm not keen to do it with passengers on board.
I still remember Airbus (A-300) warning that thouse figures were a recomendation only, the airplane was not tested for it.
In the mean while a nice cup of coffe waiting for the rwy to be clean sounds good to me.
Any light on this??
