    And to make it more "interesting", 16 will be the active runway, parking close to the threshold area is easier, and it can be very thought provoking to stand close to the runway as the heavier aircraft are landing, the effects of the wing tip vortices can be quite amusing on occasions.

    Shore, if it was easy, everybody would be doin it.😁

    This is a drag reduction program for a Boeing 727-100 involving winglets and wing re-contouring (flap and slat system modifications). Significant drag reductions were produced, and the program was awarded an FAA STC. Alligator had responsibility for all aspects of installation of test equipment and data acquisition for the program, involving 80+ channel digital, analog, low-speed and high-speed data acquisition. (September 1990 - March 1991)

    With the inclusion of extra fuel tanks, it has turned the 727 into long range aircraft.

    More likely to be positioning in for a horse charter, they were quite common from Dublin when I used to work on the ramp.
