Manston must have been the most extreme case. Mega wide runway from the war and approx only a quarter of its width required to make a normal runway. The illusion was to make the inset runway look very small.

No Need as it never stopped it being used when required.
Its surface was such that for it to be licenced it was not cost effective; but quite sat for use when the wind suited.
