          When did you film this video ? I am quite surprised most of the aerobridges are empty with only one or two planes.

                I think this was a proposed design for the BIA had it been privatised back in 2003-2004:

                Looks nice! Hopefully the new terminal can be designed in a similar way

                      Nice to see AP-CAB in Sri Lanka to perform airfield calibration work.

                        PAK-CAA has one of the world's most experienced unit in providing the services for the Flight Inspections and Calibrations. This Flight Inspection Unit will carryout tasks including : Site Survey, Commissioning, Periodic Inspection, Special inspection, Surveillance / Monitoring and Route Verification, According to PAK-CAA Web. These checks can take upto a week. I heard PAK-CAA shared their inspection-tools for several airfields in Sri Lanka before.

                            Just curious,

                            Whats the maximum capacity of CMB at one time? Is it 25 aircraft?

                            And how many flights does CMB handle a day? Is it 100?

                              Banuthev: i posted this n another forum - when somebody brought up the fact that PIA is blacklisted ..


                              PIA was blacklisted, but then again, Pakistan Civil Aviation has the next-to-best kit (the Beachcraft for calibrating nav-aids) for air ops.

                              Not a bad idea.

                              India does have better kit, then again, it is a question if they are keen to share it ..

                              FYI - Indian Calibration systems ..
