Runway Markings

 An overrun is intended for emergency use only by aircraft. A displaced threshold may be used for taxi or takeoff, but not for landing. It's primary purpose is to help provide obstacle clearance. The threshold is marked by a solid line and stripes, plus the runway ID number. A normal 3.5 degree glidepath will have you cross the threshold at 50'. The touchdown zone is 1000' long, with two bold stripes at the halfway point (1000' from the threshold). This is the aiming point for aircraft landings. Runway centerline stripes are 120' long and 80' apart.
