No, but I've had it touch down 500 feet in front of me many many times     :-D

Are they closing the runway? I know they want to widen and to convert 13R/31L to concrete at some point next year but I hadn't heard anything about the left side.

(And a courtesy laugh in case it was meant to be humor: "ha ha" - I hope atc614 has a tent and a tripod set up somewhere under the southern belt pkwy)
