Someone put one in to a 6000 foot strip in Kansas yesterday. I wonder how light they can make that plane. Maybe they will add jet assist. I once met a United pilot that put a DC-10 into Washington National. They were able to lighten it up enough (no baggage, fuel, or people) to get it out of there and over to Dulles.
