Greenfield International Airport: Difference between revisions

Due to this, most international traffic comes from Los Angeles or San Francisco which are both roughly 2 hour drives away. If a relatively large plane does decide to land here, they must use a high autobrake setting, and if one takes off here, full thrust is always required (regardless of runway condition) and the brakes are required to be held onto until the engine reaches full thrust.

There have been cases of runway overruns due to unfavourable conditions resulting from the short runways, most notably [[Golden Pacific Flight 8]] which overran the runway during a strong crosswind and crashed through the eastern airport fences and onto [[I-205]]. This prompted a complete closure of said section for 2 weeks and resulted in heavy traffic in the [[Lannex]] roads due to diversion.
