An upslope is beneficial for landings as it reduces landing distance, while a downslope is beneficial for takeoffs as it reduces takeoff distance. So any benefit gained is canceled by the cost incurred.Ultimately the most important thing is to orient the runway into the wind,as a headwind is beneficial for both takeoffs and landings, and to a greater degree than a slope.cadetpilothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05029750771600681270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8795880317817998048.post-75794003504346631772013-02-10T23:33:13.242-08:002013-02-10T23:33:13.242-08:00Thanks!Choosing a right collage is very crucial de...Thanks!Choosing a right collage is very crucial decision for carrier and life.<br /><a href="http://www.bluebirdflightacademy.com" rel="nofollow">CPL in CANADA</a><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16560014565611470691noreply@blogger.com
