seb@tadpole-technology-plc.co.uk  asked about runway lengths of Mac and Valley.
Well, here's the data:

RAF Valley (on the island of Angelsey, Wales)

r/w 14    TORA       7520 ft
          TODA/ASDA  7662 ft
          LDA        7515 ft

r/w 32    TORA/ASDA  7520 ft
          TODA       7552 ft
          LDA        7518 ft
- ---------------------------------  That's no big deal compared to other fields.

RAF Macrihanish (near Cambeltown (southern tip of Kintyre peninsula), Scotland)

r/w 11    TORA/ASDA 10003 ft
          TODA      10462 ft
          LDA        9439 ft

r/w 29    TORA/ASDA 10003 ft
          TODA      10029 ft
          LDA        8684 ft




The abbrevs mean:-

TORA   Take-off run available
TODA   Take-off distance available
ASDA   Accelerate stop distance available
LDA    Landing distance available




Well, there you have it.
