Isn't all of the Alaskan highway considered a runway? I have seen photos
of
planes in auto gas stations fueling up...presumably with the proper STC.

Also, regarding the planned use of highways in times of war. I also
thought
that was an option here in the US. Someone once told me that interstates
intentionally had straight sections suitable for a runway at fairly
regular
intervals by design.


Yes, every 10 miles is to have a straight mile, with no overpasses or
overhead wires.
