... 124 Figure G1. Longitudinal probability distribution: both landing and takeoff veer-offs -- raw distances in feet.
From page 125...
... 125 Normalization Alternative 3 -- Runway Distance Required For this scenario, the raw longitudinal distances were divided by the runway distance required (RDR) by the aircraft involved in the event under its specific operational conditions.
