I aim to see Navi Mumbai Airport through its completion: Krishna Murthy

Mumbai: R Krishna Murthy is standing on the roof of a building at Parsik Hill in Navi Mumbai. From there he gazes toward a barren patch of land and imagines a busy airport with planes flying in and out.
"This is clearly the best vantage point in this area to look at the project location," said the man who's driving the project to build Mumbai's second airport, many years in the making. The hope is that, with the land that's needed almost acquired, work will shortly get under way.
Murthy, 36, is in charge of Asia business development at the global aviation services division of Louis Berger Group, the main consultant for Mumbai's planned second airport.
He came to the project about six years ago, when he was asked to head to Mumbai by Guillermo Ubilla, then Louis Berger vice president.
