Takeoff from Fuel/Crew change area with active runway 14 is conducted from which spot?

• A. Spot 2
• B. Spot 3
• C. Spot 1
• D. Spot 4

Answer: (C)

When a specific runway is active, takeoffs from the Fuel/Crew Change Area are performed from the spot that yields the most direct, unobstructed path onto that runway. For Runway 14, the spot that lines up with the Runway 14 threshold—the first spot from the fuel area—provides a straight roll onto the runway without extra taxiing or crossing active taxiways. That’s why this spot is the correct choice: it offers the quickest, safest departure alignment with the active runway. The other spots would require additional taxiing or path changes that aren’t consistent with an active Runway 14 operation.
