Narrative:
O'hare was using runway 22L for takeoff, as well as runway 32L from takeoff, landing runway 32L (full length), and runway 27L and right for lndgs. When landing runway 27L, aircraft takeoff on runway 22L cannot be cleared into position until landing runway 27L aircraft pass. This means the window for departing runway 22L has to include landing aircraft on both runways 27L and 32L. Our takeoff was behind an A320 on runway 27L, and behind a dc-9 (md-80) on runway 32L, but in front of a 747 landing on runway 32L. Several passenger commented on this 747. Perhaps this particular runway confign should be rethought.
Original NASA ASRS Text
Title: MULTIPLE RWY OP INTERSECTING FLT PATHS RWYS CREATE POTENTIAL CONFLICT ACR X TKOF AND ACR Y LNDG.
Narrative: O'HARE WAS USING RWY 22L FOR TKOF, AS WELL AS RWY 32L FROM TKOF, LNDG RWY 32L (FULL LENGTH), AND RWY 27L AND R FOR LNDGS. WHEN LNDG RWY 27L, ACFT TKOF ON RWY 22L CANNOT BE CLRED INTO POS UNTIL LNDG RWY 27L ACFT PASS. THIS MEANS THE WINDOW FOR DEPARTING RWY 22L HAS TO INCLUDE LNDG ACFT ON BOTH RWYS 27L AND 32L. OUR TKOF WAS BEHIND AN A320 ON RWY 27L, AND BEHIND A DC-9 (MD-80) ON RWY 32L, BUT IN FRONT OF A 747 LNDG ON RWY 32L. SEVERAL PAX COMMENTED ON THIS 747. PERHAPS THIS PARTICULAR RWY CONFIGN SHOULD BE RETHOUGHT.
