Proposed Expansion
The further proposed expansion of the airport includes the construction of a parallel taxiway to the runway. This will minimize the runway occupancy time and turnaround of aircraft, as aircraft currently taxi on the runway. Two more parking bays will be added, raising the total number to eight. There are two hangars in the airport; one provides housing for the planes of Coimbatore Flying Club, the other provides shelter for private carriers. The airport has only one terminal and another is under construction. The airport is on the verge of expansion and projects are being chalked out in this direction. In addition, plans for modernizing the present terminal with all modern facilities are sought after.

“The proposed Constitution ... is, in strictness, neither a national nor a federal constitution; but a composition of both.”
—James Madison (1751–1836)
“Every expansion of government in business means that government in order to protect itself from the political consequences of its errors and wrongs is driven irresistibly without peace to greater and greater control of the nation’s press and platform. Free speech does not live many hours after free industry and free commerce die.”
—Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)
