The lift off distance is the distance along the centre of the runway between the starting point and

A) End of the runway B) End of stop-way C) Point where air craft becomes air borne D) Point where air craft attains a height of 10.7 m

Discuss

Answer & Solution

Answer: Option C

Solution:

The lift off distance is a critical measurement in airport engineering. It refers to the distance along the center of the runway between the starting point and the point where the aircraft becomes airborne. This distance is crucial for ensuring that the runway is long enough for aircraft to safely achieve the necessary speed for takeoff and leave the ground.

Hence, the correct option is Point where aircraft becomes airborne.
