R/W 28 will be undergoing pavement maintenance from Monday 02 Sept to Saturday 07 Sep however the hours of closure are 1900-0500 LOCAL TIME.

R/W 16/34 will be available and the works will be postponed if the forecast indicates 28 is required.

Out of curiosity which provider generated that NOTAM?

CORRECTION 2300 -0500 LOCAL are the planned hours of closure for R/W 28.

My error.

I don't know the original source, we get in-house advisories. I will point out their mistake to them. Thanks

Night-time closure of 10/28 happens relatively frequently during the year. As a rule, this means that the last wave of evening arrivals use 34 and then things go quiet.

Rubber removal usually.

Essential Maintenance On Main Runway

September 02 2013

Essential maintenance is required on the main runway (Runway 10/28) at Dublin Airport. Consequently this runway will be withdrawn from service nightly from 23.00 to 05.00, Monday to Saturday for five consecutive weeks commencing today, Monday September 2.

In facilitating this essential maintenance work, the crosswind runway, Runway 16/34, will be in operation during this time which may result in increased aircraft noise levels in certain areas.

Just a polite warning to people living under the approach to 34 about possible noise.

I used to live under the approach to 34 for many years, used to love waiting for the morning JFK flight to wake me up, boy those 747-100s were loud. I guess thats what turned me into a "morning person"

Been some great landings on 16 over the past year ie 777,md-11.
Plus is its wider!

I'd imagine the extra width probably creates an illusion of it being much shorter.

It's 60m wide, compared to 10/28 which is 45m. The shorter length with greater width creates the illusion that is shorter than it actually is.

Is that just because of the illusion of it being short as described below, or is it because it's a VOR DME approach?

EchoIndia

On the 16 end it is an ILS approach.
