I got 13.8' (13' 9.6") or 4.233 m.
Of course the mistake is understandable for someone used to the metric system.Tongue [:P]Evil [}:)]
Don't think I want to know why.

You're absolutely right Derek ...... had a bit of a brain freeze there.

13.8' doesn't equal 13' 8" ..... dum dum dum.

A C-17 could take off of a 1000 foot runway. Are you modeling the whole strip?
