Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport changed its position on "No problem with concrete material → reconfirming regulations"

Change of stance to point out 'violation of Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport notification standards'

"We will check whether concrete material blunt instruments violate the standards."

[Anchor]
The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, which initially said there was no problem, also took a step back when it was revealed that the local riser at Muan Airport did not meet the guidelines of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport.

We will look again to see if it violates the installation standards, but if it is concluded to be a violation of the guidelines, the aftermath will be strong.

Reporter Hwang Hye-kyung reports.

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport said that the local riser at Muan Airport was made of concrete materials outside the runway end safety zone and that the 2-meter-high hill was not in violation of regulations.

[Joo Jong-wan / Director of Aviation Policy, Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (this morning): Since our Muan side was outside of that range (terminal safety zone), various restricted regulations are not being applied....]

However, when it was pointed out that it violated the standards for installing airfields announced by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, it took a step back from its previous position.

I'm actually going to double-check the relationship.

[Kim Hong-rak / Airport policy officer at the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (this afternoon): The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport issued the proposal with the intention that the support can be used as concrete, but if Article 21 is applied (based on the installation of the airfield), isn't this wrong? (The question) taken, isn't it? I understand, so I will check the regulatory relationship and answer you.]

If the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport concludes that the localizer of Muan Airport violates the standards, the impact is expected to be large.

Airport architects and administrative supervisors must be held accountable right now,
In addition to
Muan Airport, as local risers including concrete materials have been installed at many airports in Korea, re-construction and subsequent disruption are expected.

[Jeong Mun-kyo / Former Hainan Air Captain: It also contains information to dilute the scope of responsibility. In any case, it is normal that installations in facilities around the runway in the airport should be equipped with such materials or structures to minimize damage even if the aircraft hits it.]

In the midst of this, the Accident Investigation Committee has started to analyze the voice recorder, which is in relatively good condition among black boxes.

Since the voice recorder records all communications in the last two hours of the flight, it is expected that this investigation alone will reveal much of the accident.

In the case of flight recorders whose connection parts between the data storage and the power supply are lost, we are conducting a technical review to see if information can be extracted without the parts.
