> 		PILOTS TEN COMMANDMENTS

On this poster at Glendale AZ Municipal (P37) the last one had been
modified with a ballpoint pen:

> 10)  Often shalt thou confirm thine airspeed on final
>      lest the earth rise up and smite thee
-----     or thou runnest off the end.   -----

Glendale is 2400' long, with 2100' after the displaced threshold.  If
you want a cheap Seneca II, there's one there with landing gear broken
off and with "some prop damage" resulting from running off the end of
runway 17 and coming to rest in the middle of Olive Avenue.
