Residents of Eteringbang in Region Seven (Cuyuni-Mazaruni) and businesses that operate there are breathing a sigh of relief at the reopening of the airstrip, which is now operating on a three-day schedule.
Based on a notice issued by the Aeronautical Information Service of the Guyana Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) and seen by this newspaper, the aerodrome, which was closed indefinitely to facilitate rehabilitation, is now open for normal operations, according to schedule, more specifically between Mondays and Wednesdays. Nonetheless, pilots are asked to exercise caution when using the aerodrome as maintenance work continues.
