Which signs provide the distance remaining during takeoff or landing?

Which signs provide the distance remaining during takeoff or landing?

• A. Runway Distance Signs
• B. Traffic Pattern
• C. Uncontrolled Airport
• D. Wind Direction Indicators

Answer: (A)

Runway distance remaining signs tell you how much runway is left. They are placed along the edge of the runway and show the remaining distance in thousands of feet. This information helps you decide, during takeoff or landing, whether you have enough runway to safely continue, to abort a takeoff, or to execute a safe landing. The other items describe traffic patterns, uncontrolled airports, or wind indicators, none of which provide the distance left on the runway.
