So, before you call a 2900x40 runway unsafe...
I'm not sure what the wings look like when I rotate with a crosswind, but I do know that I maintain the runway heading during climbout.
Timbuff, the climbout at GAI doesn't count. We have to turn 20 degrees right from the runway heading for noise abatement.  |
I never said it was unsafe.
