The pilots choice : off the end or off the side of the runway. Paper presented at the National Business Aircraft Meeting, Wichita, Kansas, March 26-28, 1969.

As one element of ground operations of aircraft, the current paper indicates the lack of compatibility of actions required under adverse operating conditions. It is shown that for maximum deceleration the aircraft should be in maximum drag configuration; whereas, for lateral control, minimum drag and forward thrust might be required.
