400 meters answer from aplus !!
The Langoliers. The plane lands on an airport that is abandoned with no signs of life.
Air Traffic Control - usually on the ground frequency for that airport. Switching to tower, when ready for takeoff.
Guide your plane to the runway so that you are facing it and just let it land... well, fly straight though.
On March 27 1977, a KLM plane and a Pan-Am plane colided on a runway at Tenferie North Airport at Tenferie, one of the Canary Islands. 583 people died in the disaster when 61 people survived. 335 people died on the Pan-Am plane when 248 (everbody) died on the KLM plane.
No! there been even worse ones like planes exploding. The tail falling off planes then the plane crashes. Planes braking apart on the runway.
-80/10 = -8 m/s2
The taxiways are ground paths that planes drive along (taxi) to go from the terminal to the runway or vice versa. A runway is where a plane takes off or lands.
Air control lands the plane. They also take the plane off, and pretty much get the plane from point A to B. As soon as they land and turn off the runway, Air control hands them off to ground control which brings them to the gate and from the gate to runway for take off again...
air traffic calls the emergency forces and set them to the runway then the plane lands with terror.
The Space Shuttle lands like a plane. When it gets to earth, there is a runway and it will land smoothly on the ground.
The shuttle is launched like a spacecraft, flies in space , earth orbit, but it lands like a plane on the runway, it is usable spacecraft.
They line up with the runway from a few miles out, lower the undercarriage (wheels) then keep descending slowly as they approach the runway, dropping the flaps to keep lift as they slow down more, they finally touch the earth.
Original Answer: 400 m/sThis answer is a speed, not a distance.You cannot determine what the distance traveled was since the speed is presumably decreasing for the entire manoeuvre. The best you could do is estimate the distance to be 400 metres. There is insufficient information to do otherwise.For example, if the plane touched down at a speed of 80m/s and didn't change speed until it ran into a wall 10 seconds later, it would have travelled 800m. Of course that would be "coming to a FINAL rest"... :-)
For takeoff, it requires so much thrust to get it off the ground that if it used a regular runway, it would need something like 5 miles behind it to avoid damage. So they make it take off vertically to avoid that. A space shuttle lands on a regular (but slightly longer) runway just like a plane.
An airplane usually goes at 150mph-200mph on a runway
No one actually "carries" a plane to the runway or to the "takeoff zone". But there are those men who wear ear plugs and glasses and also look so microscopic and they conduct the planes to the runway.
It is shaped like a airplane as it flies like a rocket in space, but it lands like a plane on a runway , usually Edward air force base.
