From Google Street View image 1058 Phillip Island Road.
The touchdown "zone" is about 88 metres from the road centreline on 22 at YPID.
The equivalent distance at 17L at YMMB from Centre Dandenong Road is about 170 metres.
..Unless of course you wish to land about a Third of the runway in?
Granted, the usual stiff South Westerly will give you a steeper approach, but I know of one Tiger Moth that almost ran out of fuel waiting for a B Double to pass the end of the strip.
Then of course, there are the runway hazards, I've lost count of the number I've seen splattered on that strip. They seem to be attracted to it.............
