05R

a NOTAM has been published that the rename of 05R to 05C has been delayed till 15th July 09 since 15th Feb 09

A0061/09 - AIRAC 02/08 EFFECTIVE DATE POSTPONED AS ITEM C. 15 FEB 16:10 2009 UNTIL 15 JUL
00:01 2009. CREATED: 15 FEB 16:08 2009
Also jeppesen has relesed this in it's new Jeppview Cycles

Type: Terminal
Effectivity: Temporary
Begin Date: Immediately
End Date: Until Further Notice

Until 15 JUL 09 for rwy 05C/23C the designation remains 05R/23L.

So I don't think pilots should have any problems landing on 05R (under construction) instead of the real 05R

In addition to this 05R is always used for landing and takeoff at HECA
while 05L Always for takeoff only and they will never let you do a Visual APP on 05s so you will always get an ILS APP.. New jeppesen charts also have a warning don't mistake new runway under construction

I don't think it would ever happen !
