Wait? Was Hunter visiting?
I saw the picture of the "crack". Was more like a pothole. Is the Orchidland road association in charge of runway maintenance?!
I think this is what Obie was referring to as "chunking". You can imagine what that might do to an aircraft's tires at high speed. I don't think the main problem would be a few hours delay in that case.
Chunks of asphalt are also not friendly getting sucked into jet engines.
