ATSI,

I just love your original post! Abu Dhabi finding a new (maybe more efficient) way to promulgate critical Ops info rather than the standard methods brilliant.

Reckon you'll be lucky to see your new Tower by end of 2010, ADPi you gotta love them!
How are you monitoring runway for incursions surely not relying 100% on SMR? Have they actually installed CCTV to cover the thresholds? and how do you manage around all the construction traffic that's still rumbling around in the new midfield area between the runways? Your new Tower will need to be up and operating before they start putting up the Tower Cranes for the new Terminal or you'll most definitely have a few big shadow areas.
When are you expecting to achieve full CAT III certification for the new runway?


Best of luck with it all you have a huge challenge ahead.
