I have to agree and dis-agree with your comment about the landing length of a run way for a Boeing 777. I worked at a major airport for 27 yr. as the assistant fire chief in the crash crew. A Boeing 777 can indeed land on a runway of 5,000 ft. or maybe even a little less if the conditions are right. Remember this aircraft weighs a heck of a lot more than a WWII bomber. You need a runway to hold that weight,..blacktop wont't do it. However,..it needs all of 8,000 ft preferably 10,000 feet for a safe take off. No aircraft takes off totally empty,..they need fuel. Passenger weight and luggage does significantly lower the g.w. but fuel is the major factor.
