And I've seen them for overall length issues. My home airport is 2500 feet with 2-400 foot displaced thresholds so T&G would not be very safe there. Some might have safety issues with touch-and-goes. Transport Canada says that the touch-and-go is statistically risky and that numerous accidents have been recorded during such operations. The pilot is frequently distracted by cleaning up the airplane for the takeoff and loses control, forgets flaps or carb heat, etc. Dan
