A portion of the runway behind a displaced threshold has three markings: [1] White arrows along the center line of the runway; White arrow heads across the width of the runway just prior to the displaced threshold bar; A 10 feet (3.0 m) wide white threshold bar across the width of the runway at the displaced threshold
Flight 605 touched down more than 2,100 feet (640 m) past the runway's displaced threshold, at a speed of 150 knots (278 km/h; 173 mph), following an IGS runway 13 approach. Typhoon Ira was generating 20-knot (37 km/h; 23 mph) crosswinds on that runway, gusting to 38 knots (70 km/h; 44 mph), from a heading of 070 degrees.
A McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30 overran a runway at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) after warning signals prompted the flight crew to initiate a rejected takeoff. The jetliner continued to accelerate for several seconds and did not stop until it had run 1,100 feet (335 m) past the runway threshold, collapsing the nose landing gear.
where a runway threshold is permanently displaced from the runway extremity or temporarily displaced from the normal position and additional threshold conspicuity is necessary. Runway threshold identification lights shall be located symmetrically about the runway centre line, in line with the threshold and approximately 10 meters outside each ...
