The only place I can think of is the place where they land the shuttle. Isn't that 15,000 feet long? Holy crap, I could do about a dozen landings there!

As long as that runway is we here in the states have it beat by 1000 ft. at KDEN!

That's cool.

During your time at both Al Udied and Doha, what did you think of Qatar from a westerner's perspective?

Next to the UAE, one of the more modern of the middle east nations. Not a place I'd want to live, but a nice place to visit, and definately better than the zones I was in while I was there.

Denver just opened up a runway of nearly the same size. Also Westover AFB in MA is the alternative runway for the space shuttle, pretty long.
