In the ODM abnormal section, how much air distance is included from 50 feet above threshold to stop?

The distance in the ODM abnormal section is a fixed air-distance buffer used to account for the portion of stopping that happens while the aircraft is still in the air, starting from 50 feet above the threshold. That standard value is 1,500 feet. So, when evaluating an abnormal stop scenario, you include 1,500 feet of air distance from that 50-foot point to the stop, providing a conservative, uniform margin across conditions. The other numbers don’t align with this fixed abnormal-section buffer.
