Even then the question's solution is complex, running to considerations of

(a) the (very) high capital cost of developing runways suitable for the larger civil transports - tactical strips for aircraft such as the C130 etc might suit however

(b) (a) leads to questions of return on capital, however that may be addressed

(c) to optimise the solution for one Type under a small range of boundary conditions might not be optimal for another

etc ..
