Ponds? No ponds. I think you're losing perspective on the size. That overhead photo you linked has plenty of planes but they are tiny.
The North runway is 11,489 feet long(2 fucking miles) and 150 feet wide.
The middle runway is 10,300 feet long and 150 feet wide.
The south runway is 7,800 feet long and 150 feet wide.
All three have black rubber streaks up the middle.
All three have a bunch of concrete loops on the side for taxi.
The loops have something dark in the middle, dirt, blacktop, whatever.
