tx, aiel,

good pics, infact i even made it to BIAL last oct with a friend during the rains & felt miserable.

but was worth it, i stood on the tarmac & below the jetbridge & just realized once the airport was open, even getting to see the vantage positions was next to impossible. even got to see the atc from top.

great site, but hellish approach, i still pity a dream drive is light years ahead.

also, a look at the sole terminal me thinks BIAL would get close to capacity in a very short span of time & again congestion, the terminal is squarish, but hard to believe it can handle the projected traffic at BLR.

Nice find Aiel. It's a collection from many places, including old pics posted in the BIAL website.

Megatop, from what I understand BIAL acknowledges that the present terminal is way too small. The problem was by the time things got moving it was too late to change the initial design, so we can pretty much expect the new airport to be maxed out within a year or so of opening. BIALs plan is to start construction of the second terminal (or extension or whatever) as soon as practical once the airport opens.
As for connectivity, who knows?
