Default How often do you have to go around?

Right.. for example at OSH where they are landing 3 planes at a time on
the same runway.

I guess one can't really ask a glider to go around.

There's no rule that says you have to give way to gliders.
If you are lower and on final you have the right of way.
Of course, common sense says to give gliders and others
restricted in ability to manouver the right of way.'


In addition, while ATC may have rules to that don't allow
them to permit it, there is no regulation from the pilot
side that says you can't have two aircraft on the runway
at the same time. You do have to be very careful however.
