In the airlines, we receive specific training for LASHO. We have documentation in our manuals for every LASHO runway combination that we are authorized to use. The specific conditions that allow, or would preclude the use of LASHO on a particular runway combination are listed.

Over the few years that this program has been in existence, I have been assigned many LASHO clearances. I have refused each and every one. My belief is that if you point speeding airplanes at each other often enough...some day you'll succeed. Why do you WANT to participate in this ill conceived program?

Standing by to be flamed,
