So you start the takeoff run into wind but end up with a crosswind as the aircraft becomes airborne?
Not too much of a problem with a 5kt wind but what happens on a day with 30kt winds?
In that instance do you start the take off at a point with a hefty crosswind which will ensure a headwind as the aircraft becomes airborne?

I wonder what sort of approach lighting can be expected.
The current centre line and bars system won't be of any use!

Anyway, it's all been done before.
