Talk:Toncontín International Airport

All airports in Latin America that serve the capital or principal city are paved. This airport is no exception. It makes it seem that most major airports in Latin America are unpaved since Tegucigalpa is the capital of Hounduras

Toncontin´s main runway improvement
Since August 2008, the main runway is being expanded. The runway, which currently measures 1860m. will now have 2012m. long. This means that there will be an extra 300m. of runway to the South, and the hill located in that area is being removed. This is part of a plan done by Interairports to ensure a better approximation of the aircrafts, as well as more length for take-off. The new expanded runway will have 150m. of useful paved runway, 90m. of safe stopping area, and 60m. of reza, an area for better approach, and will be the only one in Central America to have one. This project, along with a recent repavement of the whole runway, will make the airport have a brand-new and modern infrastructure. This project also forms part of a series of recomendations done by the OACI, the International Organization of Civil Aviation, which inspected the whole airport after the accident of an Airbus a-320 from Taca on May 30, 2008, when the airport was temporarily closed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.13.77.56 (talk) 19:05, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

A missed accident
The accident listed in the end of article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tan-Sahsa_Flight_414 needs to be added (L-188 Electra operated by "Sahsa Carga" (HR-TNL), in 1990). Ds380 (talk) 10:26, 17 December 2011 (UTC)

First flight
The PanAm aircraft could not have been a DC-3, as the first flight of that type was 17th December 1935, almost 2 years later. 86.139.221.171 (talk) 18:01, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
