Bringing improved reliability to the airport at Castlegar remains a top priority and technology will be the solution.
This from Councillor and Airport Committee Rep Florio Vassilakakis after the latest local media coverage.
The Nelson Star quotes Nav Canada experts saying currently there’s little hope of improving the reliability issue.
Vassilakakis says techology is improving all the time and they remain hopeful Nav Canada will modify procedures.
But he acknowledges the winter unreliability continues to be a frustration.
He says lots of work continues behind the scenes but residents should appreciate the airport is a great modern facility at no cost to city taxpayers.
Over November and December more than a third of all flights were cancelled.
