- 21 - Abstract of the Disclosure AIRCRAFT RUNWAY WITH GROOVED SURFACE A manner of providing grooves in the surface of an aircraft runway is described. The grooves are of skewed Y-shape in cross-section, having a steeply-sloping face and a gently-sloping face. The grooves face in opposite directions at the two ends of the runway, each groove is orientated so that the gently-sloping face is toward the adjacent end of the runway. A benefit of the arrangement is to combine a resistance to aqua-planing upon landing at high speeds on a wet runway, at one end of the runway, with a good friction grip between the and runway for emergency braking at the other end of the runway. This benefit is present when the runway is used in either direction.
