Foggy conditions caused aborted landings at Cheddi Jagan International Airport

Foggy conditions at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA) may have been responsible for several international flights overshooting the main runway at Timehri within the past week. 

There have been two instances of international aircraft having to make more than one attempt at landing on the main runway at Timehri.

Director General of the Guyana Civil Aviation authority (GCAA) Zulficar Mohammed told Stabroek News yesterday that in both cases there were foggy conditions at Timehri. Both flights were landing at the airport in the early morning hours.
