Does anyone know the determination ATC makes for allowing reverse op takeoffs at SNA?
I drive by SNA every morning pretty much right at 7:00 am (when curfew ends). However, once or twice a week I notice a plane (usually a UA A320 headed to Chicago - this morning it was UA flt# 230) take off using 20L instead of 2R
I have also seen a DL 757 occasionally take off using 2R mid-day.
This isn't a matter of shifting winds as, for instance this morning, UA 230 was the only aircraft to take off into the East and a long line of departing planes all took off into the west.
