The 737-200 had a GK (Gravel Kit) to make landing on remote runways in the middle of Alaska or something easy. This had a special modification to the engine inlet to block out gravel and modifications to the landing gears to ensure they don't break.
A runway of at least 6,000 ft (1,829 m) in length is usually adequate for aircraft weights below approximately 200,000 lb (90,718 kg). Larger aircraft including widebodies will usually require at least 8,000 ft (2,438 m) at sea level and somewhat more at higher altitude airports.
Irausquin Airport (IATA: SAB, ICAO: TNCS) is an airport on the Dutch Caribbean island of Saba. Its runway is widely acknowledged as the shortest commercial runway in the world, with a length of 400 m (1,312 ft).
Hydraulic pumps are both engine-driven and electrically driven for redundancy. Some airplanes have a ram air turbine that is lowered when electrical power is lost to provide a backup to power a hydraulic pump and limited electrical generator. As for the loss of the engines, all airplanes can glide to a landing.
For an average-sized commercial jetliner with typical fuel and payload, the takeoff speed is around 130-160 knots, or about 150 to 200 miles per hour. The landing speed is more or less the same, usually a few knots slower. With a very common 737-800 the landing speed is about 180-200 knots.
