You must not deal with uncontrolled airports that potentially have two
active runways, such as intersecting runways, so yes, you can have an
inactive runway.


You had me agreeing with you right up to this point. Both runways could
very well be handling arriving and departing traffic, hence the concept
that there is no one, true active runway at an uncontrolled airport.

A pilot could very well choose to land or depart on the perpendicular
runway to other traffic in the pattern and not be violating anything except
the opinions of those who incorrectly believe there is only one active
runway at an uncontrolled airport.

Stick to "Podunk traffic, Cessna 123 clear of runway X," and you would be
omitting the erroneous words such as "active" that have, at best, an
ambiguous meaning at an uncontrolled airport.

Oh, and where did the rest of your name go in your newsreader moniker?
