Air Force says don’t fly kites near airports
The Sri Lanka Air Force (SLAF) has appealed to the public to refrain from flying kites closer to the airports in view of the potential dangers to aircrafts.
Flying kites in the vicinity of airport runways poses a serious safety hazard and has been identified globally as a contributory factor to air accidents, the SLAF noted.
“Such activity directly obstructs aircraft operations and endangers both passengers and crew,’ the Air Force added.In Sri Lanka, kite flying in areas surrounding Katunayake, Ratmalana, Hingurakgoda, China Bay, Palaly, Katukurunda, Koggala, Vavuniya,Weerawila and Mattala is considered especially hazardous.
The SLAF emphasizes the urgent need to inform and remind the public of these dangers.
