The Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) on Tuesday announced its preparedness in tackling the fog season at the India Gandhi International Airport (IGIA), to ensure continuity of flight operations during the low visibility period during winter.
"We are fully prepared to handle flight operations this year. CAT-IIIB (the instrument landing system) installed at Delhi Airport is capable of handling flight arrivals with runway visibility range of up to 50 metres," DIAL CEO I. Prabhakara Rao said in a statement.
"We are proud of the team-work displayed by IGIA stakeholders every fog season with a collective aim of enhancing passenger convenience and safety," he added.
The three runways at the IGI Airport-- 28, 29 and 11 -- are certified for CAT III B operations, which would allow landing of the compliant aircraft with visibility as low as 50 metres, while aircraft can take off with visibility of 125 metre, the statement said.
