Noida: Noida International Airport (Jewar) reached a major milestone on Friday as a calibration flight by the Airports Authority of India (AAI) successfully landed on its runway, signaling the start of crucial safety and system checks before operations commence.
Flight Tests Precision Of Air Navigation Systems
The calibration flight, a mandatory procedure before any new airport becomes operational, tests the precision and reliability of air navigation systems, including the Instrument Landing System (ILS), radar, and communication equipment.
During the exercise, AAI’s specially equipped aircraft flew at varying altitudes and angles to evaluate the accuracy of ground-based signals. The data gathered by onboard measurement instruments is analyzed to detect and rectify any technical deviations.
