So when you're scrolling through the available aircraft on the Order New Aircraft page you have your different columns of information. Price, speed, capacity, etc. 

 

But the winglets column strikes me as useless. Mostly because it doesn't even show a winglet option for aircraft that can have them installed, just planes that come with winglets anyway.

 

So I propose we replace it with the aircraft's runway use. I feel like it'd save a lot of grief when people fly out of Dublin and order 77Ws.

For each engine option? Or the best possible?

IF you're proposing the best possible, I like this.

that pissing runway at Dublin needs another few thousand feet on it, and yes ive made that error numerous times. good idea. if you even order the wrong variant of many widebodies it can land you in the poop and have to schedule routes from SNN instead.

Well I do hate ordering 77Ws when I do an Irish airline... good plan that could be implemented quickly.

If such a feature where to be implemented the fair option would be to include the "Average" runway length :P

i do however support this idea :)

Good point. I replaced the winglets column with runway length using the base engine option, so slightly smaller lengths may be available for an aircraft depending on engine selection.
