How Benin runway incident exposed fresh safety gaps, triggered recommendations — NSIB
The Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau (NSIB) has identified safety concerns around the runway-end environment, control tower line of sight and availability of meteorological information following the runway overrun involving an Enugu Air aircraft at the Benin Airport in Edo State.
