GAZZUZZ: beautiful concept actually... but unfortunately that is where it all ends for this concept. Technically, taking off and landing of airplanes only work in a straight line, so this concept will remain just that - a beautiful concept - until the day planes start having dynamic rotors that will enable change of direction and ability to fight windshare in midflight! pilots already find it difficult to land in a straight line as it is, and now in a curve?

koreskbv: stop masturbating, it is not a black man issue here... it is a practicality and viability issue for people who know what it takes for planes of today to take off and land! quite impossible in a curve, unless you want to keep sacrificing passengers on per second billing! 2 Likes 1 Share |

Explorers: "Hesselink originally came up with ‘the endless runway’ after watching one too many scary crosswind plane landings on Youtube, and decided to take action to improve the situation. the circular shape of the banked runway would allow it to be used in all wind conditions, by allowing planes to take off and land at any point on the circle. in strong, blowy conditions, aircraft would land at the point where wind was at a minimum. with changing wind direction, the aircraft can move with the wind, preventing bumpy landings and costly operations for changing runway direction. the ring-shaped track also ensures that the planes always have headwind when they need to take off and land." The plan is more about wind management than multiple planes operating simultaneously. |

gabrielniy: Exactly, multiple planes taking off/landing at a time can be dangerous. Then the runway wont be for learners, because as you are taking off/landing as a pilot, you are turning at the same time. |

Looks a little bit crazy but at least someone is still thinking despite all the advancement in the Western World. Africa, wither art thou? |
