The Issue of Aircraft Takeoff Distance

At Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, when aircraft take off from short runways like 4/22 and 15/33, they don’t lift off until they reach the end of the runway. I’m not sure if this is how it actually happens in real life. If not, I suggest optimizing this.

Additionally, when taking off from the long runway 1/19, if the aircraft enters the runway early from approaches like N/N1, the runway length may be insufficient, causing the aircraft to clip through the approach lights at the end of the runway.

I hope that in the future, when selecting a takeoff runway and runway entrance, options for runways and entrances that are too short for the aircraft’s takeoff distance should be disabled or removed.
