The maximum spacing between runway edge lights is 200'. Airport operators

are unlikely to spend the extra money for tighter spacing.

200' hopefully is enough space to stop the glider from a speed where you
still
have aerodynamic control.

On your first glider landing on pavement you will discover a longer ground

roll, especially if there's a downhill gradient.

I was thinking I could steer the glider off between the lights but ran out
of
energy as the slow speed passing the last light was not enough to get off
the
side.

But there's other nasty stuff that can lurk alongside paved runways.

Those with better skills can turn off onto a taxiway - watch out for props.


Better to stop on the runway and assess where you can safely pull off the
glider.

It helps to know the local airports and which ones are not suitable.
