What's an infinitely long runway?


That reminds me of the pithy old saying, to the effect that if someone
could build a runway extending all the way around the world,
then Grumman could build an airplane that would need all of it.

That would be handy for practicing takeoffs and landings without wasting
fuel to go around the patch.
