To enhance the efficiency of aircraft landings and take offs during adverse weather conditions, the New Gwadar International Airport (NGIA) has successfully operationalized the high-tech Instrument Landing System (ILS) CAT-III(B). The Instrument Landing System (ILS) is a ground-based approach system that provides precise guidance to aircraft as they approach and land on the runway. It is crucial for ensuring safe landings and take-offs when visibility is compromised due to poor weather conditions. A Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority (PCAA) official explained to Gwadar Pro this state-of-the-art system is capable of assisting aircraft in landing under low-visibility conditions, with a Runway Visual Range (RVR) limit of just 50 meters. The official emphasized that successful landings depend on three key factors: minimum visibility of 50 meters, fully trained pilots, and aircraft equipped with the necessary avionics that are compatible with the ground-based system. ” The Civil Aviation Authority has already notified all airlines to upgrade their aircraft and train their pilots to ensure they can fully utilize the ILS CAT-III(B), thereby preventing any disruptions for passengers,” he added.
