                    Project Details<\/h6>

                    In 2007, Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) strategized the expansion and upgradation of various systems at Jinnah International Airport, Karachi(JIAP). IEC commissioned the first of its kind, Hatch and Pop-Up type underground power pits, with Plug & Play type Solid State Ground Power Units and Advanced Visual Docking Guidance Systems (A-VDGS) at this major airport in Pakistan. Prior to this system, the airport authority used AGNIS\/PAPA system for Pilot Guidance, a system no longer recommended by ICAO.<\/p>\n<\/div>

                    This project was executed in phases and included the dismantling and reconstruction of taxiways and aircraft waiting areas at the secondary runway. This involved replacing the existing halogen-based airfield lights to more energy efficient LED based airfield lighting system.<\/p>\n<\/div>

                    The successful execution of these projects was so monumental for CAA that it decided to upgrade all major airports to the A-VDGS system and LED based lights thereafter.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>
