- Contexto
- Each runway should be included in a runway strip. The purpose of a runway strip is to provide for the following operational considerations: a) a graded area for aeroplanes accidentally running off the runway; b) a cleared area for aeroplanes drifting from the runway after take-off; c) a cleared area for aeroplanes carrying out a missed approach initiated from a very low altitude; d) an area for the installation of essential visual and nonvisual aids; and e) an area for drainage and run-off from the runway.
- Recommendation.— The width of a runway end safety area should, wherever practicable, be equal to that of the graded portion of the associated runway strip.
