Lol, wow, that may be a case of Chronic Aircraft Addiction, CAA, coincidentally (Or not). Stage 4 symptoms: " The sufferer has no regard for other aircraft models/manufacturers. The aircraft model/manufacturer that is addicted to is often seen as the only flyable aircraft in existence "
Why is ACN important to airport planning? Planes poke a hole, someone patches it up, go back to normal life. Glad that the government is buying back our airport. Finally should get to see the first 777 to land in the country. Closer than anyone else, of course

Thanks for all the info, got to get it from multiple sources so the airport isn't screwed because of my mis-information 
. Professional airport engineer eh? Sounds interesting. I've got myself a new career.

You called....?
Planes poke a hole, someone patches it up, go back to normal life.
However, there was indeed one case where I recall a B707-320B had the landing gear torn off by a rather large hole...happened in Nigeria a rather long time ago.
Nasty accident.
As for the L1011...usually not a problem at most airports...except perhaps at some Greek island airports on/near the parking stands, just after repaving, in the summertime....
