Default Crashing on takeoff... how odd


wrote in message

Early reports indicate that the plane tookoff (or failed to takeoff as
the case may be) on the wrong runway,a runway that was too short.


It is apparently clear the plane was cleared to use one runway but used the
other. The early reports speculated thaat the runway used MAY have been too
short, but did not state so unequivocally.

Is there anyone here who actually knows? Is 3500 ft adequate for a fairly
well loaded 202? It sounds short to me, but I have no data available, no
facts upon which to base a conclusion.
