Patrick,<br>
<br>
I just heard on a Haitian radio station that the US
military is building an additional runway to deal with the "inundation
of humanitarian aid flights" at the port au prince airport, which
cannot handle all the traffic they were getting. The "piste" (landing
strip or runway in english) should be open in the next 24 hours. It
should be close to port au prince -- I can't remember if it was 20 km
from PaP or 20 mins from PaP.<br>
<br>
I heard it on Signal FM 90.5 at around 20:30 tonight.<br>
<br>
And here is the french print news source corroborating the Haitian
radio -- it will be in Jacmel. Built by US special forces. Will be used
first to support Canadian operations south east of the city.<br>
