Thanks for the videos, I passed my private pilot written with a 98% last week, and your content was a huge help!

To answer your question Jon: PCN stands for "pavement classification number", it deals with the load-carrying capacity of the pavement.

You are so much helpful not just to pilots but to the future airport airside managers

[@trevorjentzsch2837]

Why would they include the full length of the runway, with threshold, if not all the runway is usable?

[@FLY8MA]

It's used for planning purposes for emergency cases, and some carriers need to factor in the "overrun" if it is needed

[@kevineggert8708]

Also, the displaced threshold can be used for takeoff so the length including this area is useful information.
