Out here, when they want to clear fog, they send out a 747 (which can take off in very poor visability). This clears the fog somewhat and raises the visability a bit, so then they can send out, say, a DC-9, or similar. Of course, this could be thought of as cheating, but you would be left in awe at the RVR reading improvements after just 1 747 takeoff .... Once, after a Pan Am 747 took off, you could see up to the open sky! /Geert Anyone else seen this?

hmmm ..... and where does the 747 land afterwards? or is it clear long enough to allow a safe landing again ??? aren't the landing requirements even more stringent than the take-off requirements? sounds fishy to me .... -------
