Anyone know of a website which has aerodrome dimensions n it? Not just length but things like taxiway width, holding point dstance from centrelines, the kinda thing they would have built from ie the plans?

Some, but not all of this information would be in the relevant AIPs. Some of which are avaiable of the internet. Google can help find the AIPs if available.

Annex 14 is hard to get hold of i.e. you have to send money for it.

The UK CAA publication CAP168 contains all you need to know and runs pretty close to ICAO, as is general policy in the UK (not like some other states I could mention!)

CAP 168 (http://www.caa.co.uk/application.aspx?categoryid=33&pagetype=65&applicationid=11&mode=detail&id=232)

It's quite big, so download it rather than try & read it on-line.

I sleep with it under my pillow, in the hope the info will somehow filter through...

Cheers,

Great, this is pretty much what i was after, have also stumbled across good old annex 14 but what is discussed is very similar as u would expects,

Once again thanks
