Mysuru: A month has elapsed since the last flight took off from Mysore Airport, at Mandakalli, on October 24, but there is no sign of any other operator evincing interest in launching the services.
On Tuesday, though Chief Minister Siddaramaiah returned to Bengaluru by a special flight from Mysore Airport, he didn’t enquire about the status of the facility, though it went defunct to an extent. After the last flight of SpiceJet, that took off only on a few occasions, the metal birds made a sound, albeit with special and chartered planes.
Three special aircrafts belonging to the Indian Air force and one of an automobile entrepreneur landed in the airport. Prior to the arrival of Chief of Air staff Arup Raha by a special jet plane on November 28, two planes belonging to IAF carrying the defence personnel had landed here, to inspect the facilities ahead of the visit of the Air Chief Marshal.
Earlier too, when regular flights were absent, chartered flights belonging to private companies used to utilise the facility.
