That's hard to say unless you've been at the end of 19 in a spam can.
It doesn't take much brush to make it impossible to see the end of
another runway.


It's easy to say if you've examined high resolution imagery of the
airport.

The geometry also makes it look like the plane on 24
would be slightly behind the plane on 19 as they approached the
intersection.


To an SR22 at the hold short line for runway 19 on taxiway bravo a P180
departing full length on runway 24 would be moving from a position about
45
degrees off its left nose to the right.


Presuming, of course, that the P180 was in motion before the SR22 taxied
into position, turning 90 degrees in the process...

I'm glad that the P180 pilot realized that the situation was running amock!
