![]() .... Recent aerial video of the airport shot since the crash show that the displaced paved area of the approach end of Rwy 22 is painted with yellow chevron striping. Iirc, this indicates that the area is NOT usable for taxi, takeoff, or landing. Not Suitable For Taxi, Takeoff Or Landing -- -- -- Suitable for Taxi and Takeoff but NOT Landing Right. That's the thing some posters are missing; The recent runway improvements were to SHORTEN the runway 22, creating a long overrun/blast pad area on the approach end (not usable for normal ops). The airport then placed some barracade obstructions across the old taxiway A-8 to prevent access. And the NOS charts do not even show that section anymore. http://www.faa.gov/ATpubs/AIM/Chap2/...html#NX732ROBE But the old google earth and airnav page mini picture still show the old runway 22. Sorry to beat a dead horse. |
