- Down: the direction of the start and runway of the aerodrome in degrees rounded. It is characterized by two numbers, one for each of the two directions. If the airport has two parallel start and runways, the right-most path receives the letter R and the left one L. The opposite directions reversed accordingly, for example, 09L/27R and 09R/27L. In three parallel paths, the letter C is used ( from the English center), such as 09C/27C for the middle path.

For example, Atlanta has five start and runways and can use them all at the same time because they are parallel. Chicago O'Hare has seven start and runways, but can use up to four tracks simultaneously, because the other three tracks run in disabling directions.
