Eh? If you're instructed to hold short, the other guy's runway DOES include
150 feet or so of the runway you'd otherwise be entitled to use.

Er, that's what I was saying.

I suspect my caffeine fix was overdue when I read your previous
article:

I now think that all you were doing there was (unnecessarily)

not seen it in action - but for some reason I took it to be a
claim that the rhomboidal patch at the intersection is part of
the "other" runway only!
