Those foggy days at sofia airport......

Sofia airport's catagory has been updated to enable flights to land under certain foggy conditions which is great news.

I'm sure i read terminal 1 and T2 use different runways,and only 1 of the runways is fitted with the foggy thingy landing whatsyoucallit...All sheduled flights like BA etc use the new system whilst all charters use a different runway..

Any light on this anyone??

If it's foggy and a plane is coming down with a visability of 200 meters then i am sure they will use the runway with the new gear rather than flying to Greece or Plovdiv.

Could be wrong though Wink

Just got home Tiger.
As far as I know, the new runway has been built next to the existing runway. They are only using the existing runway as a taxi.
