A portion of the runway behind a displaced threshold has three markings: [1] White arrows along the center line of the runway; White arrow heads across the width of the runway just prior to the displaced threshold bar; A 10 feet (3.0 m) wide white threshold bar across the width of the runway at the displaced threshold
The captain deliberately turned the plane to the left when he realized the plane would overrun the runway and hit the approach lighting system (ALS) for runway 31. That action caused a "ground loop", making the plane slide off the left side of the runway into Victoria Harbour. The plane came to rest in shallow water, with a heading of almost ...
Runway 02/20 length includes a 300 metres (980 ft) displaced threshold on Runway 20. Runway 15/33 length includes a 240 metres (790 ft) displaced threshold and 150 metres (490 ft) overrun on Runway 33. The Barcelona VORTAC (Ident: BNA) is located 0.36 nautical miles (0.67 km) off the threshold of Runway 15. [3]
The runway thresholds are markings across the runway that denote the beginning and end of the designated space for landing and takeoff under non-emergency conditions. [23] The runway safety area is the cleared, smoothed and graded area around the paved runway. It is kept free from any obstacles that might impede flight or ground roll of aircraft.
Recent works by Ahiaga-Dagbui and Smith suggests an alternative to what is traditionally seen as an overrun in the construction field.

In 1991 the airport was renamed to Binghamton Regional Airport. In 2002 Runway 16/34 was shortened to 7,100 feet to make room for an Engineered Material Arresting System (EMAS). The EMAS is a bed of material that will crush under the weight of an aircraft, stopping the aircraft in the event of a runway overrun.
