Pune: Parking issues it seems are not limited to four-wheelers on roads. The Pune International Airport too has limited parking space and there is little scope to expand the area. The delay in building the new airport even as city's skies get busier has affected the private aircraft operators. Private, non-scheduled aircraft owners and operators are now forced to park their aircraft at distant locations such as Aurangabad and Nashik.
The Airport Authority of India (AAI) too has expressed helplessness on the grounds that the airport is under the control of the IAF. Airport authorities said city's 17 private aircraft are vying for space at the airport. Eight aircraft have been allotted permanent parking space for night halt. The remaining nine aircraft get permission to park only if any of the permitted eight aircraft are away. Furhtermore, four requests for night halt are pending.
