Which airliners can take off from LIH

LIH's longest runway, 03/21, is 6,500 ft.

Of the 55 airliners in PlaneRange, 15 can take off at maximum takeoff weight, 30 can leave with an 80% load but less fuel, 6 cannot lift an 80% load and 4 cannot take off at all.

The runway costs the Airbus A350-1000 the most. It needs 10,154 ft at maximum weight here, so at 80% load it leaves with less fuel and flies 239 nm instead of 8,603 nm.

Too heavy for this runway even empty with reserve fuel: Airbus A340-600, Airbus A380-800, Boeing 707-120B and Douglas DC-8-63.

At maximum landing weight on a dry runway, Airbus A330-900, Airbus A340-300, Airbus A340-600, Airbus A350-1000, Airbus A380-800, Boeing 777-300ER, Boeing 747-400 and Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental need more runway than LIH has to land.

Range is in still air at the map's default 80% load, with each aircraft in its default airline config and 210 lb per passenger with bags. "Needs" is the takeoff field length at maximum takeoff weight, corrected for LIH's elevation. Reserves cover a 45-minute hold and a diversion to the airport nearest the destination; for the range column that is Honolulu Daniel K. Inouye International, 88 nm from LIH. Pinned airports are the 115 shown as pins on the map.
