Chuck Norris once shot down a German fighter by simply pointing at it and saying "bang".
They never dropped atom bombs on Japan, they dropped Chuck Norris out of a B-29 and he punched the ground.

Chuck Norris is a wuss, can't even beat a short Asian guy.

Havnt you seen him in the home gym commercial?
I'd say he's celebrating his diversity nowadays. If he was any lighter in his Loafers he'd be prancing on air. And the Lisp? :lol

Runway numbers are given with the compass alignment
e.g. Runway aligned 140 and 320 degrees (would be 14 and 32)
There's no 370 degrees, it stops at 360 *smile*

Yeah that had me boggled for a minute. I knew they went through 360 degrees but I was still saying to my self..."alright..what am I not getting?".

But then, would there not be a runway 36 as it would be runway 0?

Would be runway 36 I think.

North is not 0º ergo, no.

It's 36 since there is no 0º

You and the rest are not alone at all.
The runway 37 was my favorite one of the bunch too, and to my friends who were in the mood for jokes this weekend (but clueless to aviation) I had to explain the runway 37 = 370 degrees thing. Was a great joke though for those who understood it off the bat. And a decent one for those who needed to be briefly educated.

The runway 37 thing was pretty self explanitory. Wtf is ergo?

I sigh therefore I am. Disappointed. If they're not teaching things like this in high school then I'm getting old.

You'd think anyone who'd watched the Matrix would know what all those fancy words means.

Not to be confused with Argo.....which was Jason's Ship, or Argos......which was Odysseus dog.

It is in nautical terminology, why would you waste your time dealing with that 360* full circle garbage
-
in aviation a north heading is expressed as 360. Not 0. Runways facing due north are labelled 36. No such thing as a runway zero, or being told to turn to a heading of 0. lol

Chuck Norris is a tool and so are the lame "jokes".

Chuck Norris does not sleep ....he waits
Helm ...out

Helm ...out
no he protects from his eyes on occasion when they are angry.

Chuck Norris has been dead since 1982, but Death is to afraid of him to tell him so.

Even I can, barely, beat up a short, weak asain, as long as he doesn't know Kung-Fu or Karate.

and... what happens when the runaway has a heading of 36 degrees?

It's heading would be either 030 or 040, making it runway 3 or 4

Right, got it, thank you :aok
-

Would be 4 because of rounding methinks.

The true heading doesn't matter, the runway numbers are based on magnetic heading so it would depend on the amount of declination. If it were 36 degrees magnetic then the runway would be 4.
(In International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and some United States military (such as Edwards Air Force Base) airports, numbers for runways less than 100° include the leading "zero", for example, Runway Zero Two or Runway Zero One Left. However in the United States at most civil aviation airports, numbers for runways less than 100° are often given as single digits)
