Longest runways at commercial airports in India
Created using mygooglemaps.comListed below are the longest commercial airport runways in India of 10,000 feet in length or greater. As can be seen, Indira Gandhi International in Delhi has the two (2) longest runways in the country and three (3) of the top seven. Another interesting tidbit is nine (9) of the 42 runways were built on a 90 degree/270 degree trajectory (9/27). The second most common trajectory is 100 degrees by 280 degrees (10/28) with six. Peace!

Paz!

Longest runways at American commercial airports
Listed below are the longest runways at commercial airports in the United States. The minimum length for inclusion is 10,000 feet. AS can be seen, 10,000 feet is the most common length, followed by 10,001 feet.
Source: wallpapercave.comSeveral smaller markets have length runways including Amarillo, Wichita Falls, Roswell, Lincoln, Salina, Portsmouth, and Destin-Fort Walton Beach. Many of these are the result of the airport also being the site of an active or former air force base.
The airports with the most runways of 10,000 feet or longer are Dallas-Fort Worth International and Chicago O’Hare with four (4) each.
