Work on closed runway at Delhi airport to be completed by Jan 19
Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) is expecting to complete the work on the now closed runway RWY 10/28 by January 19, the airport operator has informed the Ministry of Civil Aviation (MoCA), according to people in the know.
The RWY 10/28, which can handle flight landings (CAT-III) in low visibility, has been under refurbishment since mid-September.
Currently, only one out of four runways at the Delhi airport, RWY 11R/29L, is capable of using the CAT-III system, which allows pilots to land when visibility is as low as 50 meters.
