GfL gets the tender for a safety assessment for the missing/non-ICAO compliant Runway End Safety Area (RESA) at Mannheim City Airport

January 2014 | Safety Assessment

The Regional Administrative Authority of Karlsruhe, which is the responsible approving authority, has tasked GfL to assess the impact on flight safety due to a missing/non-ICAO compliant RESA at Mannheim City Airport. According to national and international regulations every runway must feature a RESA to ensure safe operations. The safety assessment will point out whether safe and regular flight operations can be maintained without a RESA, especially with the planned resumption of scheduled flights.
