2001-07-04Retired chief pilot warns against third runway
A retired Northwest Airlines chief pilot with over 15,000 flight hours argues against the construction of a proposed third runway at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, citing serious safety concerns including runway incursion risks, wind shear hazards from surrounding walls, and complications for fire and rescue operations. He contends that pilots will avoid the new runway because it is shorter and farther from the terminal than existing runways, meaning it will do little to reduce delays or increase capacity. Drawing a parallel to an unused commuter runway built at Sea-Tac in the 1970s, he warns that the $2 billion project will become a costly monument to poor planning.
