Danger of flying kites near Tan Son Nhat airport

The vacant lot on Duong Quang Ham Street, 2 km from Tan Son Nhat Airport (HCMC), although it is a construction area, has many people coming to fly kites.

In the past few days, many people have come to release cashews on Duong Quang Ham Street, Ward 5, Go Vap District, Ho Chi Minh City. It is worth noting that this area is only about 2 km from the landing strip of Tan Son Nhat Airport.

According to research, Tan Son Nhat airport has an aviation safety zone 5 km wide and 15 km long.

According to Ms. Lan, a resident of Duong Quang Ham Street, because the road is under construction, there is an empty lot inside, no vehicles, so in the evening, many children come here to fly kites.

In this area, some kites were stuck, hanging on power lines.

The leader of Ward 5 People's Committee said that he had received the information and was working with the construction unit.
