Let's see you operate [i]your[/i] L39 off your 2,000 foot runway using your bible.

Put your money where your mouth is, Princess.  You're so much smarter
than I am, so you must be a very wealthy man indeed.  An L39 would be
pocket change for someone as brilliant and capable and wealthy as you.

I apply my x2 "AFM Fantasy Number" correction factor, so 2000' x2 = 4000 foot runway at sea level ISA.

I never even dented an airplane in my lifetime of flying, because I'm such a Pussyâ„¢  You?

You're either a blowhard liar, or dead.  Which is it?

Someone close by please explain that having a ground roll of around 2000 feet is NOT the same as operating said aircraft from a 2000 foot runway.

Get an old 172, take Dave to some quiet paved strip, paint a line every hundred feet. Sit out with some lawn chairs and bet on his roll outs.

I always used runway lights.

Every 200 feet, right?

Oh, is this like the tide pod challenge?

I'm in, I bet after a few practice landings I can stop in well under 3500'! 

There will be a barbecue right?

Tags are these things.

Thanks David.  But, the 'infraction' part...?

I’m sorry, did I miss something?

I was out practicing three point rolls.  Harder than it sounds.
