6101 X 100' They'll get it out of there. No problem.

A great opportunity to cite fatigue especially if they came in from Europe with just a tech stop in JFK. But a bit ironic Fedex guys are so quick to judge and criticize. How many mishaps has Fedex had? Nobody is immune to these types of incidents.

Not the first time it has happened...
Wrong Way Landings By Commercial Airliners ...probably not the last. There but for the grace of God go I. |

A B747-400, at relatively light weights, IE, under 600,000 pounds can get off the ground in 3000'. We do it in JFK all the time with max reduced thrust.
I'm sure they have the big motors, and with max blow, it should be a no brainer. They'll have over 3000' stopping distance for a reject. |
I just have to LOL at this. Just pull out you ipad and look at where you are?? Ha.

Having flown into McConnell AFB a couple times from the north the alignment and closeness of the three fields can easily cause confusion during day VFR. At night I would think more so. There but by the grace do God go I.

Shouldn't this be considered "Braking News!" ?
