Runway Lengths
Can anyone explain why runway lengths are sometimes "X thousand and
ONE feet" in length? I was just looking through a list of Iowa's approximately 110 airports and 7 of them have runways that are "X thousand and one feet" long. Do runway manufacturing companies offer special deals like "Buy 5,000 feet of runway, get your next foot free!!!" There's got to be a logical explanation - anyone know it?
