Brace for grounding of flights at Chandigarh airport this winter too
People planning to travel from Chandigarh International Airport this winter should brace for cancellation of flights, just like in previous years.
Reason: Installation of the CAT-3 instrument landing system (ILS) at the airport has been delayed again.
An ILS allows pilots to land using instruments when they are unable to establish a visual contact with the runway, especially when their is poor visibility. Fog and inclement weather affects visibility and hits operations at the Chandigarh airport every winter, especially during the peak season in December and January.
