Reply to @mikeiaka: whoops, it’s the runway that seems to look like that’s it’s getting demolished.

Seems to look closed, so I settled it from open to closed.

Reply to @Herbthebird: The AN-2 is NOT the largest biplane ever produced. Look at the HP42 for just one counter-example, or the Vickers Vimy for another. I agree, though, that Grenchen is a very nice airfield; only a bit on the expensive side, like everything in Switzerland.

Runway A-OK (in the middle)

— @YankeePapa at Francisco Primo de Verdad y Ramos Airport, Mexico

Longest DT that I’ve ever overflown (3300’), but that’s the crumbing half. The remainimg usable runway is in fine condition, far better than the ramp which will need a gingerly low-power taxi to minimize flinging FOD. Speaking of taxis, get that pre-arranged with your lodging because you are quite a way from the handsome town. We loved the Casona de Tete near the center. Only five rooms! A truly worthwhile, memorable stop.

Runway dimension update

🔗 Wed, 12 Apr 2023
— @Richard747 at Turweston Aerodrome, United Kingdom

The length of 09/27 is 1309 m. The Pooleys entry of 1307 m is to be updated.

The distance between the painted thresholds is 1000 m as this is the longest a licensed runway can be with a width of 23 m.

However 09/27 is now unlicensed. This means the full length of 1309 m is available for take-off and landing,

From the Turweston website 12 April 2023:

Turweston Aerodrome has tarmac and grass runways

These are designated

09/27 hard

09/27 grass

03/21 grass

The circuits are 09 – left hand and 27 – right hand

03 – right hand and 21 left hand

The marked 09 threshold is displaced by 210m and the 27 threshold by 99m

The tarmac runway is 1,309m x 23m with a declared distance of 1,000m between threshold bars, but as an unlicensed runway the distance of 1300m is available for take off or landing if required.

TORA 09 from B intersection is 900m

09/27 grass has an available length of 800m x 23m

03/21 grass has an available length of 460m x 23m
