How do you calculate enough room for a runway? I'm going to get a ch 750 that could take off in 100ft. but I need to build it into the side of a small hill. I have about 800 ft length available but not quite yet a pilot. Would 50 feet wide be enough? I have trees on three sides and don't want to cut more than necessary, also I'm at 1957 feet.
