That's an interesting question. Let's say I'm on final and I call you on
the CTAF and tell you that I'm coming in slow and you have plenty of time
to
depart before I get there. You can see me on final, but you can't really
tell how fast I'm moving. You go ahead and start your departure role, and
I
end up colliding with you somewhere down the runway. Are you at fault
for
not giving way to traffic on final? Even if I advised you to go ahead?

For you nitpickers that will claim that you should be able to tell the
speed and distance of an aircraft on final from the runup area, assume the
vis is 3 miles and I'm flying a helicopter.


Why do you even bother with runways when you're flying a helicopter?
