The long and winding route to and arrival at short and straight - TopicsExpress



          

The long and winding route to and arrival at short and straight runway 4R-22L, JFK NY. Todays A/D cycle time (the time between arriving and departing aircraft using the same runway) was 17 seconds. Hence, the hot arrival and subsequent deployment of 100% speed brakes, 100% thrust reverse and rather quick taxi off to Terminal 4. Saeng Nuan weighs 37,876 kgs / 83,500 lbs and does not stop on a dime. 17 seconds behind me was an Air China A380-800 coming in light (minimal fuel reserve) from Shanghai.
