there is already land in the middle of davao and panabo. 2000 hectars and its government owned. so walang problema.

reclaiming land will cost a fortune and it will disrupt the seaway along the way to the sasa international pier.

05/23 ang runway ng davao

maybe kc ang laki ng perang kelangan nyan...diba? expensive ang magreclaim.. also, about what may happen with the vast space? possibly it will become nga like an IT Park or business park...Asiatown IT Park Cebu used to be an old airport, same as with the Makati Business District!

remember the time when pal went on strike for tow weeks? cathay filled in for pal.

it was also the time for them to test their aicraft here in davao. after the two weeks and pal flew again, cathay said that they were interested to fly to davao. but their requirement was that DIA should have a taxiway. this was because they did not want to have some undue stress to the front landing gear when executing a 360 degree turn at the end of the runway.

ang arte naman ng CX. PAL nga daily ang 360 turn sa runway ng kanilang a380. by the way, may ILS ba ang DIA?

DIA's AIRWAYS NAVIGATION SERVICE EQUIPMENT:

1. Doppler Very High Frequency Omni-Range Beacon (DVOR)
2. Distance Measuring Equipment (DME)
3. Non-Directional Beacon (NDB)
4. Tower/FSS/APP Communications
5. Precision Approach Path Indicators (PAPI) & Simple Approach Lighting System SALS)
6. Airfield Lighting System (ALS)
7. Meteorological Equipment (MET)

they have no Instrument Landing System (ILS) and Air Route Surveillance Radar(ARSR)

[LordCarnal]

By the way, I still cannot understand those runway numbers like 5/27, what does it mean?

[kiretoce]

Those are runway designations based on where your approach to the runway is, like runway 5L (left) or 27R (right).

[LordCarnal]

but what is the signifiCance of the numbers?

sino na nakalaro ng computer flight simulator na microsoft flight simulator 2004 dito?
sa game lagi na yun ay walang ILS and dvo. by the way, pano pla magpaland ng plane gamit ang VFR approach? alam ko na mag pa land gamit ay ILS approach.?

[psionic]

diba 4 times daily and flights ng PAL dito sa davao? bakit this afternoon may dalawang PAL na magkasunod na nagland? una is a A340 then sumunod isang A320 ata or A319?
