Comments and historyA major airport that parks 30 jets on its apron. It was built starting in 1961, with work completed in 1963. It services nearly all types of jets. The western overrun measures 600x42 m long but is no longer usable since approach lights are installed here; this overrun has a turnaround and it appears it formed part of an older runway that was moved east and expanded in the 1980s or 1990s.
