North Korean and United States authorities are still probing the cause of the accident, which prompted regional mourning with memorials set up across the country.
Attention has focused on many possible reasons but questions have been raised about why the concrete wall, known as a localiser and used to support planes understand their flights, was at the end of the airport.
The Ministry of Land said in a speech that” a unique health examination revealed that improvements are needed for localisers at seven flights around the state”.
These include Muan and Jeju International Airport- a famous tourist hub and the government’s second-largest aircraft, after Incheon which serves the investment Seoul.
The actions include “relocating the bases under and replacing them with light material structures”.
Muan International Airport’s existing concrete hills may be removed completely and the localiser may be “reinstalled using repairable structures”.
” This determine prioritises activities requiring urgent notice,” said Transport Minister Park Sang-woo.
” We plan to establish measures for animal reach elimination progress and an aircraft security innovation plan through more investigations and reviews,” he said.
At the moment of the accident, the captain warned of a parrot strike before pulling out of a second getting effort. The plane crashed on its subsequent attempt when the takeoff equipment did not emerge.
Birds were found in both vehicles, according to North Korean media accounts, with a bird attack being examined as one possible cause.
According to the government, a thorough study of bird-attracting facilities around airports began on Monday as part of the “bird reach elimination development plan”.
The research was more clouded when the transportation department said the black boxes holding the trip data and aircraft voice recorders for the crashed aircraft stopped recording four minutes before the disaster.
The land ministry said on Saturday that Muan airport’s closure period had been extended three more months until Apr 18.
