Advantages of a circular runway: unlimited runway available for both takeoff and landing; design allows unlimited flexibility in planning approach and departure corridors; dilution of the cross-wind problem; provides an inherent stable tracking feature; affords minimum required taxi distance and maximum runway access for the crash crews; affords optimum control tower placement; allows optimum placement of navigation aids; requires a smaller total area than a comparable conventional airport; the center building complex allows optimum passenger access to and departure from aircraft; rapid aircraft departures and arrivals possible; affords optimum low visibility procedures; compactness derived in the building complex; design contributes to noise abatement; actual flameout and dead-stick approaches possible.
