Karachi Airport’s General Aviation hangars are facing a growing issue with stray dogs, raising serious safety concerns for ongoing flight operations.According to reports, the area, which hosts training aircraft, has seen multiple incidents where stray dogs came dangerously close to causing accidents.
In a recent incident, a stray dog narrowly avoided colliding with a taxiing aircraft, forcing authorities to cancel the flight due to safety risks.Reports also indicate stray dogs roaming around Jinnah Terminal’s main runway, adding to the airport’s safety challenges. Beyond stray animals, debris like metal objects around the hangars creates additional hazards. Aircraft tires often burst due to these obstructions, causing flight delays, cancellations, and financial losses in the millions due to tire replacements.
