AAI conducts flight calibration of instrument landing system at Navi Mumbai Airport

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.
