New control tower goes into operation at Colombia's Bogota airport
THE Colombian airport of Bogota has opened a new control tower that is expected to double the number of air traffic operations at the facility.
The 90-metre control tower, which is now the tallest and best equipped of its kind in Latin America, will allow hourly flights to increase from 58 to 90, reported London's Aircargonews.
"The control tower has been designed to meet the requirements for the airport's air traffic control service, primarily in critical areas," said FCC, the company that built the tower.
"This will reinforce the safety, regulations and alertness demanded by the airspace users. It will also guarantee maximum operational capacity of the airfield and will update technology to be at the global forefront.
