minimum runway length requirements are typically greater than those published by aircraft man-
ufacturers. An example of assessing runway length needs for a particular aircraft is shown in
Figure 5-2.
5.2.3 Runway Width
The required runway width is based on the ARC of the critical aircraft and consideration of wind
coverage. Per FAA guidance, the minimum runway width may be increased for additional cross-
wind tolerance (as discussed in 5.2.4) or as required to support a precision approach. Minimum
Local Conditions
Elevation: 1,000' MSL
Mean Maximum Daily Temperature: 85oF
Critical Aircraft: Cessna Mustang used for Part 135 operations, at an approved destination airport
Mustang Manufacturer Handbook Takeoff Distance (SL, ISA, MTOW): 3,110 feet
Guidance
Adjust runway length requirements using figure below for 100% fleet, FAA AC 150-5025-4B, Runway Length
Requirements for Airport Design (while Mustang was not one of aircraft used by FAA to develop this table, its
sea level standard day requirements are very similar to the general curves at 3,220 feet.)
Resulting Runway Length
3,940 feet of Runway
For Part 135 operations at approved destination airport- 4,730 feet (3,940 x 1.2 feet) of Runway
