Circular Runway

-

Given the growing congestion of our nation's airspace any possible solution to the issue should be at least considered. If it is found that circular runway airports can improve efficiency and maintain safety as advertised I would be prepared to support the idea. However, from my own experience gained from operating out of smaller municipal airports, which in some cases have adversarial relationships with their host communities due to aircraft noise and use of land, one might expect that the most difficult portion of implementing newer more innovative airport design would be securing the property to construct them.

Runway Position

-
How would runway positions for takeoff be assigned? I guess parallel operation would mean touchdown at a 9 o'clock position and takeoffs would be at 3 o'clock position simultaneously!  Most likely such a system would only work if it was fully automated under the supervision of very capable computers since it boggles the mind to think how traffic patterns, takeoffs and landings could be regulated by human ATC personnel and complied with by the average human pilot.
