Multiple pilots have reported disruptions in GPS signals at Lahore’s Allama Iqbal Airport, raising major doubts about the Civil Aviation Authority’s (CAA) sincerity about passenger safety yet again.
In the aviation business, GPS technology is extremely important. It is used to figure out the precise location of a plane throughout all stages of flight. In the circumstance that GPS signals are disrupted, pilots may make incorrect landing calculations.
Numerous pilots have stated that GPS signals are also being disrupted approximately 150 nautical miles from the terminal, causing major difficulty in landing the plane.
Seven airplanes have mentioned the same issue in the past few days. On December 8, an aircraft from Abu Dhabi was the most recent to have GPS signal loss.
Pilots from both domestic and foreign airlines have complained to the CAA, urging that the body take prompt action to resolve the issue.
