@rubyportwine in norway they use yellow instead of white on roads and runways
-
Some of the more exotic places to go & to land too.Thanks!
-
@CVKent317 maybe because of the weather. it is snowing all year round. and white is difficult to see white. so maybe thats why they used yellow.
-
Correct!
In areas with alot of snow it is common to have yellow markers instead to reduce perceptional illusions.
-
snow on the runway might confuse the pilots. The white stripes are distance markers and also denote the runway boundary

Why is the runway painted yellow instead of white?
CVKent317 2 years ago
Does the colour really matters ?
rubyportwine 2 years ago
Well, not really.
But generally a yellow paint on a runway indicates an area is off limits except in emergency
CVKent317 2 years ago
I think, yellow colour can give the pilot sure feelings to be on the right side, because snow can cover the runway and how should the pilot know the difference from snow and white markings ?

@rubyportwine how long was the flight from oslo?
seaboo143 1 year ago
@seaboo143 We flew on the way from Oslo first to Tromsø and after that with the same plane further to Longyearbyen. On the way back from Longyearbyen to Oslo we flew straight and the time was 2h 44 min. for 2.016 km. Happy Eastern.
