then only to find that the last 1000ft or so to be slippery at the same time as you start to turn to exit the runway.
- ah! Memories
1) Exiting R09 at Leuchars in my Frightening in the middle of a winter's night and entering the ORP to turn off to then complete a 360 on sheet ice I was not warned about. PS I don't think anyone noticed my landing lights sweep around St Andrews and the sea.............
2) Some years later, exiting R36 at KEF, and that was the night we all discovered (again un-published) that the last 1000' was NOT grooved and was sheet ice. I don't think my co-pilot knew what happened (insufficient briefing time
) or how I got round the 90, but it involved significant asymetric thrust
Company dullard tried to bollock me ("You must have been going too fast" - er - "Yes, I think is QED?....") but a NOTAM was issued that night.
