Dr. H/D also likes to make the turnoff at Bravo when landing on rwy 32:

Displaced threshold? Bah!

Is that a displace threshold at MOB or something else? The airport
diagram doesn't appear to mark it as a displaced threshold, so I'm
wondering what it is (stopway? taxiway?), how you tell from the
airport diagram, and what pavement markings you'd expect to see.

Oh, yeah. Turn Dr. D in. I don't learn anything from NTSB reports
where the pilot was just an idiot.

Mmmm, I think it's something else: an abandoned bit of the old runway, not
available for landing or taxiing.

Besides threshold markings...weeds? Can't remember - I'll have to fly over
and do a t-&-g to see. A similar abandoned bit of rwy 36 at BFM has an X on
it, but doesn't show on the plate at all:

Oh, yeah. Turn Dr. D in.

I have seen the physical evidence of the metal- and plastic-bending
incidents. Everything else comes from multiple credible eye witnesses. On
this basis would you run to the FAA? By the way, how do we know that
someone hasn't *already* done so?
