displaced threshold

In such a case, aircraft are expected to land beyond the displaced threshold.

Displaced thresholds have arrows as the center line of the runway.

Both ends of the runway have displaced thresholds for landing.

The 500 feet to begin Runway 32 is a displaced threshold making it only used for takeoffs.

The runway has displaced thresholds on both ends to clear obstructions.

Runway 31 non-standard markings; displaced threshold marked with reflective markers & cones.

A displaced threshold is a runway threshold located at a point other than the physical beginning or end of the runway.

A displaced threshold may also be introduced if a beginning section of the runway is no longer able to sustain the continuous impact from landing aircraft.

Runway 23 has a displaced threshold, which shortens the runway to 3,913 ft for landing operations.

Aircraft do not land at the end of the runway as at most airports, but land at what is called a displaced threshold.

Displaced thresholds may be used for taxiing, takeoff, and landing rollout, but not for touchdown.

In 2010 The Maryland Aviation Administration changed the criteria for minimum approach angles and marked the airport with new displaced thresholds.

The airfield has two grass runways, both of which operate with a displaced threshold to allow aircraft to sufficiently clear the Bruce Highway and local roads.

A displaced threshold often exists because obstacles just before the runway, runway strength, or noise restrictions may make the beginning section of runway unsuitable for landings.

When viewing a runway's size with displaced thresholds, one must find out how long the displaced thresholds are in order to calculate the available landing distance.

Included among the projects were the resurfacing of Runway 13/31, as well as the relocation of the ILS glideslope & MALSR due to the creation of an 800' displaced threshold on Runway 13 to comply with FAA runway safety area standards.
