‘ILS Will Ease Bad Weather Reports In Asaba Airport’ – Aniagwu

Published

on

The Delta State Government has said that with the successful installation of the Instrument Landing System (ILS) at the Asaba airport, bad weather reports would no longer affect the operations of aircrafts flying into and out of the airport.

Mr Charles Aniagwu, Commissioner for Information, stated this in a statement over the weekend in Asaba. 

He noted that the successful installation of the Instrument Landing System, was part of efforts to upgrade the Asaba International Airport.

Aniagwu assured that once the ongoing installation of the Air Field Lighting systems were completed, the airport would be able to operate at night without hitches in line with the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) standards. 

“The Asaba International Airport has the capacity to become a major hub for local and international flight operations and called on the relevant regulatory authorities to give the necessary approvals for the operation of Boeing 777 and other bigger airplanes in and out of the airport”,  the commissioner stated.

He commended Governor Ifeanyi Okowa for his commitment towards ensuring total upgrade of the airport, and make it an aviation hub in the region.
