The definition given me is 'the runway length where AG distance equals AS distance"
Is this a misnomer?
It seems to me that if AG EVER equals AS to any precision, then it would be a phenomenal coincidence.
Essentially, one is the distance it takes to stop the airplane after accelerating to Vef, the other is the distance to climb to rch after vef.
I can't see how they would ever be the same, unless a human manipulated something to make them equal.
