22nd May Accident Coverage

The claims of one Mr Leo Saldhana have been presented as "fact" without citation. Similar claims have been made elsewhere and have been rebutted effectively in the comments section. We are disputing the neutrality of the news coverage being presented in this article,; tagging it for missing citations; and tagging it for non-conformance to wikipedia presentation standards.

International??

Its true that there are some flights to gulf countries. But the name of airport has not been renamed as International airport. It is still called as Mangalore Airport only.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Crazysoul (talk) 14:17, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You are right, it currently is enjoying a status that of an customs aerodrome. It is supposed to get international status in February '09 as per a recent report in the newspapers.--PremKudvaTalk 09:57, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Distances from Mangalore airport to nearby places

I am deleting the Distances from Mangalore airport to nearby places section. It is not required. And consistent with other Indian airport articles.--PremKudvaTalk 10:10, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why not there be direct flight, from Mangalore to Hyderabad and return, either nonstop or via Bangalore, or Chennai or Mumbai or Goa. I feel concerned authorities should try for such a route combination. Definitely it should work out.117.195.201.229 (talk) 14:49, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Mistake in the infobox as to runway labeling -- 10/28

From the layout of the airport, the new runway cannot be 10/28. It's more like 04/22. Furthermore, on Google Earth, I can make out the "0" on one end and the leading "2" on the other, but not the remaining digits. I think this is cause enough to fix this mistake and I am changing the designation to 04/22. I was unable to find any sourcing other than direct inspection of satellite imagery. The situation is timely considering the Air India Express Flight 812 runway overrun crash. --Mareklug talk 04:53, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The runway is 06/24. You can verify the magnetic heading in eg. google earth Oempapa (talk) 08:21, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
