Not only that, but he's also a bit thick:

Quoting me:
.... It's not a short, rough strip with obstacles on the approach, it's a nice long tarmac runway with an unobstructed approach to the displaced threshold.

He asks...

Then why the displaced threshold? Quote from the AIP - "Runway 26 landing threshold displaced by 89m to allow 1:20 approach over trees and HT cable."
Because, you nitwit, the presence of the displaced threshold MAKES IT AN UNOBSTRUCTED APPROACH! That's what it's bleedin well for!

Jeesh!
