Passengers flying to and fro from Mumbai have had complaints regarding the late-running flights, for a quite a long time now. But if you’re boarding a flight out of Mumbai from this weekend, you need not stress about your flight delaying.

A new navigation aid has been installed on main runway 27 at the Mumbai airport which will be functional from Saturday. This new instrument is a landing system that was being developed for some time now, as a result of which the navigation aid was switched off for over two weeks.

Pilots and Air Traffic controllers received a notice that had said the navigation aid on main runway 27 was to remain shut till June 5. The new landing system has now been upgraded with its calibration work being completed on Wednesday.
