Commissioning
4.2 When RAOA works are in progress for ILS Runway 14 Left /Runway 14 Right, significant portions of the approach lighting system of Runway 14 Left /14 Right will be withdrawn. These RAOA works will require the presence of workmen and machinery at the approach area (Refer Appendix A). During these periods, approach and landing on the affected runway will not be available as follows:
  1. Runway 14 Left: During the months of October 2014 to January 2015.

  2. Runway 14 Right: During the months of January 2015 to May 2015.

4.3 The above RAOA works will require current ILS Runway 32 Right/32 Left equipment to be decommissioned and the new ILS Runway 32 Right/32 Left equipment to be commissioned as follows:
RunwayDecommissionCommission
ILS 32 RightOctober 2014April 2015
ILS 32 LeftMay 2015November 2015
4.4 Current ILS Runway 14 Left will be withdrawn for a one week transition period to allow the newly installed Runway 14 Left ILS equipment to be commissioned, during the month of April 2015.
4.5 Current ILS Runway 14 Right will be withdrawn for a one week transition period to allow the newly installed Runway 14 Right ILS equipment to be commissioned, during the month of April 2015.
