Multiple Choice

The width of Runway 28R is ___ feet.

Explanation:
Runway width is the across-the-pavement distance defined for an airfield, a fixed data point you use to understand what aircraft can operate safely on that surface. It’s published in airport data and charts and stays constant for that runway. For Runway 28R, the documented width is 200 feet. That wide dimension indicates a runway designed to accommodate larger aircraft and provide ample wingtip clearance and braking margins. The smaller widths listed (75, 100, 150 feet) are typical of much narrower, lighter-traffic runways, so they don’t match the standard data for a parallel, long runway like 28R.
