The Delhi international airport is geared up to ensure safe flight operations amid increasing fog in the city, operator DIAL (Delhi International Airport Limited) said on Tuesday.
The airport utilises an Airport Collaborative Decision Making (ACDM) cell – which has representatives of domestic airlines, air traffic control and the Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) – for better coordination when visibility reduces due to fog, it mentioned.
The airport has three runways, and they are equipped with a landing system that allows CAT-III B operations, the DIAL stated.
“A CAT III B compliant infrastructure allows aircraft to land with a minimum visibility of 50 metres. At IGI (Indira Gandhi International) airport, an aircraft can take off with a visibility of 125 metres,” it said.
