Veer Savarkar Airport Upgrades with Advanced Navigation Systems

30 Jan 2024 CW Team

In a move to enhance aviation safety and navigation efficiency, Veer Savarkar International Airport is gearing up to install an Instrument Landing System (ILS) and Runway Lighting System (RLS) soon. The strategic implementation of these advanced technologies is expected to significantly improve the airport's operational capabilities, ensuring safer landings and takeoffs for aircraft.

ILS is a precision approach system that assists pilots during the final stages of landing, providing crucial guidance and altitude information, especially in adverse weather conditions. The addition of ILS at Veer Savarkar Airport will enhance its capacity to handle flights with increased precision and reliability.

Simultaneously, the installation of RLS is aimed at improving visibility and runway identification during low-light conditions. This lighting system will further contribute to the overall safety measures, reducing the risk of incidents and ensuring smooth operations for both domestic and international flights.

The initiative aligns with the airport's commitment to upgrading its infrastructure to meet global standards, fostering a more robust aviation environment. The implementation of ILS and RLS at Veer Savarkar International Airport reflects a strategic investment in modern technology, enhancing its position as a key hub for air travel in the region.
