the runway needs to be about 10,000 to 11,500 ft, but it also depends on the altitude, wind speed, and aircraft speed.
Yes, although there are no regular services using the A380 currently from the airport.
No runways 10/28 amount to 8652 meters and a380 requires The minimum length of runway for takeoff is 9,020ft and for landing, it is 5900ft.
Karachi airport has two runways, the longer one is rough 11200 foot long. An A380 at MTOW needs a runway of approx 9000 foot. Depending on the safety regulations for aircrafts, if should be able to land and take off in Karachi, maybe with reduced weight.
Yes the Airbus A380 has already landed at Nadi International Airport on two different occasions and both the times they were owned by Qantas Nadi International Airport has all facilities to accomodate an Airbus A380 but it hasn't beenn certified yet. The airbus A380 had to land once due to someone getting sick onboard and the second time due to some technical issues
Unfortunately no as Cochin internatioanl airport or any other airports in india has sufficient runway length to handle this huge plane.Theoretically it can just land in almost all airports but in case of emergency if it tried to land and attempted to take off later it wont have enough clearence.Hence a runway of 4km+ is needed to handle this airplane allowing for clearences.Which is available only in Indira Gandhi Airport,New Delhi.It's the only airport where an a380 has actually landed in india
Airbus A380 can land in Delhi T3 terminal and in Hyderabad. They have all the necessary equipments. In fact T3 has seen one landing in July 2012.
At the airport
Yes Actually. Cape Town International Airport has went through a lot of renovations, extended it's runway, and actually has two or even more aircraft gates which can accommodate the A380. The first airline would probably be Emirates, but possibilities that South African airways can come up with a few A380s is not bleak. Do not get discouraged, i live in Cape Town.
No, except in an emergancey
Runway, airport, airstrip, airfield, aircraft carrier.
No airplanes can land in an airport. They land on the runway.
All current passenger planes could use this runway, an Airbus A380, the worlds largest aifcraft requires only 1524m to land, in fact, even the worlds heaviest plane could land; the Antonov AN-225 requires 3500m to land, and 60m to complete a full 180 turn.
