I heard an interview on CBC radio (a program called "Sunday Morning",
Sunday at 9 am, very informative, this week devoted to Grenada) with
a US military advisor who had visited/investigated the airport.  His
comment: "obviously not for military airlifts. No taxiway beside the
runway, only turnoff in the middle of the length of the runway. ...
I wouldn't design a runway like that..too slow to land, get off the runway
for the next plane..and neither would the Cuban/Russian army"
