RE: Terminal ATC: Sectors?
Thanks to everyone for replying! I take it that the breakdown of the terminal airspace at a typical major airport would have to be quite elaborate, perhaps not unlike what's shown on that <acronym title="Los Angeles - International (LAX / KLAX), USA - California">LAX</acronym> virtual ATC website?

Terminal ATC: Sectors?
In a the terminal area around a major airport there can be a multitude (let's say as many as 4-6) radar control frequencies: approach/arrival/departure, plus possibly others. Presumably, during busy times each frequency is worked by a dedicated controller. My question is: does each one of these cont...

Of course the interference is on the OPPOSITE side of the approach to that which CO3407 took. As a matter of fact, the aircraft would have to be several degrees away from the localizer centreline to be affected by the erroneous signal.

RE: 707 With Ten Exits
Like any door/emergency exit issue, this probably boils down to passenger capacity. More exits = more passengers that the aircraft is allowed to carry. Comes into play when an aircraft is stretched, or when an airline decides to use a high-density seating arrangement (e.g. charters).

V1 Speeds Out Of A Speedbook
How come V1 speeds are depicted in speedbooks as a function of TOW only, shouldn't the length of the actual runway used play a part in figuring out the appropriate V1? Do the tables just assume accelerate-stop distance = take-off distance at that particular weight?

Perhaps to make the holding bay (or whatever that wide area just before the hold point for the runway is called) bigger? Can't be a clearance-with-the-runway issue since the parallel twy for 28R is closer, and for 28L as well elsewhere, as you've noted.

I'll keep my question simple: why is it that on some airliners there is no window seat next to the plug-type overwing emergency exit, while on others (of the same type!) there is? This can commonly be seen on narrowbodies, such as the A320 family, 737s etc. My best guess was that it had to do with t...

An-124s have been used extensively by NATO countries to transport military cargo to conflict zones (namely Afghanistan). Whether the U.S. in particular is chartering them too I don't know, but it's a possible explanation for the Antonov's presence.
