January 18, 201214 yr I just remember my AF flight from EDDF to LFPG taking the scenic route from the gate to runway 18. It was Dec 27, 2010 and Europe had been blanketed with snow the days prior.Luis Linares LUIS LINARES Processor: Intel Core i9 6700K 9900K (5.0 GHz Turbo) Eight Core; CPU Cooling: NXXT Kraken X62 280mm CPU Liquid Cooler; System Memory: 64GB Corsair DDR4 SDRAM @ 3200 MHz, RGB; Graphics Processor: 11GB Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, GDDR6, Primary Drive: 2TB Samsung 850 Pro Solid State Drive (SSD)
January 18, 201214 yr Btw, the runway at EHAM is called 18R/36L. Usually, when the wind is coming from the southeast, runway 24 is used for takeoff, and 18R for landing. With wind from the north, 36L is used for takeoff (also very long taxi), and 36C/36R for landing. With eastern wind, 36L for takeoff, and 06 for landing. With western wind, 27 for landing, and 24 for takeoff. Arjen Vandervelde

January 18, 201214 yr I spent more than an hour taxiing from terminal 8 to rwy 22R once at KJFK. The traffic levels were incredibly heavy, to say the least. Johan Pettersen

January 18, 201214 yr Even with minimal traffic, Rwy 10/28 in KATL takes a while. Problem is that it is only assigned when there's lots of traffic. Charles Carter i5 750 OC'd to 3.6GHz - 8 GB RAM - nVidia GTS 250
January 18, 201214 yr This past Cross the Gulf leaving Miami was pretty long....about 30 minutes for me from the gate to wheels up...... William Sequeira
January 18, 201214 yr Several years ago at LFPG (DeGaulle) landed 27R and then taxied to Terminal 2. For those unfamiliar with deGaulle, 27R is on the north side near Terminal 1 in the NW corner of the airport. Terminal 2 is in the Southeast corner. It is a very long way (5-6 miles ) and took over 40 mins. This was an Air France flight which would normally land on 26L or 26R which are on the south side of the airport. And this was early in the morning when traffic volume was not high. BTW, the A/C was a B777. Regards, Claude Franklin
January 18, 201214 yr To add some extra confusion; 06 and 27 are never used for take off and 24 and 09 only rarely used for landing. MennoNot wanting to nitpick, but 27 in fact is used for takeoff. Granted it doesn't occur very much, but a few time a year we are treated with westerly takeoffs. Regards, Frank van der Werff

January 19, 201214 yr This past Cross the Gulf leaving Miami was pretty long....about 30 minutes for me from the gate to wheels up......Dang! I was leaving Orlando bound for Miami and Orlando Delivery, GND, TWR, and Approach kept disconnecting. I spent almost 30 minutes getting clearance and taxi. i7-6700K @ 4.5 GHz, 16 GB DDR4-2400 MHz, GTX 1070 8GB
