Mysteries of Flight: Circular Runways? Crackpot Idea Or Brilliant Solution?

The idea behind circular runways isn’t new, but it has gotten increased attention lately. Could it be the key to increasing landing capacity nationwide, or is it just as crazy an idea as it seems?

By Plane & Pilot

Round airports have been around since the early days of aviation, because that layout allowed the notoriously lightly wing-loaded planes of the day to land directly into the wind no matter which direction it was blowing. But circular runways are another thing altogether. And while the idea might seem totally crazy at first blush, there’s some serious research being done to see if circular runways could achieve increased airspace system capacity, which absolutely is limited by the number of available runway ends. With a circular runway, there would be, theoretically, an unlimited number of runway “ends” at any given airport.
The Idea
With a circular runway, planes could approach to land from many different angles, so you could have multiple planes on approach simultaneously. And you could have planes taking off and landing at the same time as well. Great, in theory.
But in order for planes to be able to navigate the turn, the runway would need to be banked, as an oval racetrack is. Planes would approach to land and then turn into the curve as they landed, touching down and continuing to turn with the runway—there’s no going straight with round runways.”

Met un coefficient de friction réduit, des vents et l’idée ne marche plus... De plus, atterrir un gros porteur dans un virage? Bonnne chance avec l’inertie.

Les avions atterrirais pas mal tous sur la meme piece de beton de toute maniere, il faut tout de meme atterrir dans le vent.

Me semble avoir déjà discuté de cette inepsie il y a plusieurs mois. Ce sera toujours impossible sauf pour les helicos qui de toute façon, n’en n’ont pas besoin.

Pas une bonne idee, ca vas être comme dans les ronds-point aujourd'hui, pas personnes sait qui a priorité de passage.

Tu commences ta course au décollage avec un vent de face et tu te retrouves avec un vent de queue sur la rotation... Brillante idée pour sauver de l'espace sur papier... Back to the drawing board
