aircraft carriers
Because takeoffs are optional, landings are mandatory.
To act as pilot in command of an aircraft carrying passengers, the pilot must have completed three takeoffs and three landings in the same type of aircraft within the preceding 90 days. These takeoffs and landings must be done in the same category and class of aircraft to ensure the pilot is proficient and current. This requirement is crucial for maintaining safety and operational standards when flying with passengers.
Passengers, during taxi, takeoffs, and landings only.
Los Angeles international had 622,506 aircraft movements (takeoffs and landings) in 2008 an average of 1701 a day.

The maximum rate of take offs and landings (tempo) on an aircraft carrier is 2 takeoffs and one landing every 37 seconds during the daylight and one takeoff and landing every minute during nighttime.
Schiphol Airport, located near Amsterdam in the Netherlands, has six runways. These runways are designed to accommodate various aircraft sizes and types, facilitating a high volume of air traffic. The airport's layout allows for efficient takeoffs and landings, contributing to its status as one of the busiest airports in Europe.
Safety measures at the air strip include regular maintenance of runways and navigational aids, air traffic control monitoring, pilot training and certification requirements, runway lighting for visibility, and strict adherence to established procedures and protocols for takeoffs and landings. These measures help ensure smooth and safe operations for aircraft.

There are several types of runways for planes, primarily categorized by their surface material and usage. The main types include asphalt, concrete, and grass runways, with asphalt and concrete being the most common for commercial airports due to their durability and ability to support heavy aircraft. Additionally, runways can be classified as paved or unpaved, with paved runways providing a smoother surface for takeoffs and landings. Furthermore, runways may also vary by their orientation and length, tailored to accommodate different aircraft and environmental conditions.
because you walk up and down the runway doing all sorts of pose. i am improving this answer. the answer above mine is stupid. it clearly says the category is in airports. okay, so if a runway is active it is used for takeoffs and landings. (not much of an answer though)
