Kansai

(1/1)

EHM-1001 Robert:
Hi folks,

anybody knows what is going on there ?



I would say that they built a small playground for trucks, with little racetracks, and challenging rallye courses ;D

So what is the upper island for ? An airport extension, or an industrial park ?

EHM-1651 Christian:
It's Kansai expanding, adding a second runway at least.
Don't know if they are expanding the terminal to.


See their homepage for more info: Kansai hompage

The new runway will be: 06L/23R and have alength of 13123ft or 4000m due to open on 2. aug 2007.

@Robert I suppose you could use the runway for drag racing:]

EHM-1001 Robert:
Wow, sounds great !

But really, if you chec the map on Google Earth, you will see that kinda short oval tracks were built on that area :D
