The obstacle environment for both runways is already in the public domain, via current published ICAO Type A Charts.
That only leaves actual construction and a subsequent "as built" check survey by AGS's aviation surveyor to secure SARG approval and formal "notification" via NOTAM and AIP change. Once the NOTAM goes out its legal, or should I say "100% definite"?
If I were an aircraft operator I would at this stage be planning what I could do with the extended runway, and even penciling in some destinations for next year.
