Equal level of safety for the intended aircraft

Requires an acquisition of approximately nine acres of avigation easements for the RPZ.

The project feasibility depends upon funding available if the FAA approves the justification of the runway extension.

Accommodates 100% of airplanes weighing less than 12,500 pounds on a hot day (91° Fahrenheit)

Accommodates 98% of large airplanes weighing 12,500 pounds up to 60,000 pounds at 60% useful load on a hot day (91° Fahrenheit)

On a cool day (roughly 54° Fahrenheit), accommodates approximately 100% of the large aircraft fleet weighing 60,000 pounds or less at 60% useful load
