For a Fuel/Crew change with active runway 14, landing occurs on which spot?

• A. Spot 2
• B. Spot 3
• C. Spot 4
• D. Spot 1

Answer: (B)

When Runway 14 is active, the landing spot for a Fuel/Crew change is the position that gives direct access to the fuel/crew area and a clear, unobstructed taxi path onto the ramp. This setup minimizes back-taxi time and avoids crossing the inbound/outbound traffic flow, keeping the runway clear for other operations. The designated spot for this scenario is chosen because it lines up with the fuel dock and the typical taxi route used after a fuel/crew change, making the maneuver safer and more efficient. Landing at other ramp spots would require longer taxiing or crossing traffic, which is why the correct choice is the spot that best aligns with the fuel/crew area.
