There is no stopway or clearway for this runway.
2597-2300 = 297 meters, what is this distance called?

O_S with the fleet replacement of the Classic and MD90, we are getting dragged kicking and screaming into the optimum world But at least we still have the MD11 which doesn't account for a Stopway or Clearway

Our logic on the older aircraft was that they didn't have any allowance for line up nor did they have the ability to stop! Remember that these are aircraft were certified with NEW BRAKES and TIRES!

FE_Hoppy. The performance limit for the stopway is half the takeoff flare distance.

As for airports with ASDA > TODA, look at Peshawar in Pakistan, it has a stopway but the trees surrounding the runway prevent it being used as a clearway.... (Unless they chopped the trees down recently ) Its also a novel runway in that it has a train track crossing it!
