What Steve said. Also, you are wrong in thinking that the controller can't
clear anyone else for takeoff until you have turned off onto a taxiway. If
the airplane taking off is a similar type to yours (light single, for
example), all the controller needs befor issuing the takeoff clearance is
3000 feet of separation. Controller's discretion, of course.


Uhh, no. In that situation, departing aircraft behind landing aircraft, the
landing aircraft must taxi clear of the runway before the departing aircraft
begins to roll.
