The Airports Authority of India (AAI) on Monday started conducting flight calibration of instrument landing system (ILS) for runway 26/08 at the under-construction Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA) which is expected to start the first phase of operations by March 2025.
The two-day exercise, a critical step in calibrating flight paths to ensure the airport’s operational readiness, will end on August 13 (Tuesday).
This is a landmark event, essential to prepare the instrument approach procedure and eventual licencing of NMIA and its operationalization, said the Navi Mumbai Airport in a Facebook post.
