That signed off paint markings to go down, weather permitting could be completed in one night.
Hopefully the airport's surveyors on standby for next week. The limited task necessary should be comfortably possible with a few hours work, day or two to wrap up the survey data, rubber stamping by SOU and then emailed to NATS AIM for verification.
Looks as if the contractors will be completed by or before the 18th, just a wait for SOU to wrap up the CAA "Completion" paperwork, then a wait for the CAA to sign it off.
As AGS will have paid mega bucks for the CAA's project involvement, they can reasonably expect that CAA will not drag their heels.
Nice to see a project come together as it should, on time, and hopefully on budget?
There being tested today,according to the project manager email to me.
