What's the narrowest runway you've ever used? At what runway width are
you
comfortable? Among other things, I had an interesting experience
yesterday
with a runway that was far narrower than any I'd used before...
Liberty, NC, 2A5 Runway 2/20
Dimensions: 3800 x 40 ft. / 1158 x 12 m
http://www.airnav.com/airport/2A5
The Mooney's wingspan is 36' 1".
There are no noticable obstructions along the sides of the runway, so I
didn't
have any heartburn about taxiing / takeoff / landing. It definitely is a
good
place to observe the optical effects of a narrow runway during short
final, though.
My home airport has 150 ft wide runways.
Mine also (150' and 100') and it takes your breath away coming into a
spaghetti farm for a change.
