I keep hearing the media state the CRJ fully loaded needs 5000+ feet for
takeoff. But the devil is always in the details: Does anyone have the approx
expected ground roll TO numbers? The expected roll distance to V1? And does
anyone know if runway 26 has runway remaining signage?
I'm asking because I would have expected rotation by 2500 feet and wheels
off by 3000. Contrast this with the media stating that the NTSB found scrape
marks on the departure end of runway 26 possibly from the CRJ overrotating.


There are a number of runways here in British Columbia of around 5000',
which have been regularly used by CRJ's and/or 737's.
CYZT Port Hardy - 5000'
CYZP Sandspit - 5120'
CYDQ Dawson Creek - 5000'
CYCG Castlegar - 5300'

Many years ago I flew on a 737 from Vancouver to Port Hardy and
Sandspit.
