What if the Cessna rolls a bit and aborts? Mechanical problem. Forgot his Jepps. Fred F. Chances are if he aborts he will be off the runway before you touchdown. If there is a nearby turnoff. In the posed situation, the Cessna pilot isn't even aware of like us on short final. Quick thinking rules the day in all cases, and I was reacting only to the suggestion that a mere, perceived 1,000 feet separation poses no hazard. Usually works at Oshkosh AirVenture, though. :-) Fred F. |

Then there will be two of us on the runway. Big deal. |
