Yang Tai Airport dispatched 20 snow removal vehicles. How does snow affect the runway?

Anyone who often flies knows that if there is thunder or heavy snow, the flight may be often delayed. When it snows heavily, a thick layer of ice and snow will accumulate on the runway. At this time, airport staff need to clear the snow on the runway, which takes a lot of time. After snow removal, they should immediately remove the ice from the runway, and then sprinkle some snow remover on the runway to prevent the snow from accumulating again.

Many people want to know why cars can go and planes can't. The reason is that because of the heavy snow, it is very likely that the runway will freeze. As we all know, ice is slippery. If you walk on the ice, you will easily fall down. The same is true of airplanes. You need to taxi according to the runway when you take off. If there is ice on the runway, the plane may slide to other runways. This will cause a certain safety hazard to the plane's climb, if there happens to be a plane trying to land at this time.

So for the safety of the people, we have to postpone the flight. Just now, it will also cause flight delays in lightning weather. This is because the plane is likely to be hit by lightning during the flight. Although the plane is equipped with lightning protection facilities, it is afraid of one thousand. So in extreme weather, most people are afraid to fly, even if they wait a little longer.

However, Russia, known as a fighting nation, has made some shocking moves. Sometimes they will fly as usual in thunderstorm weather and land safely. I have to admire their courage and superb operation skills. Of course, we ordinary people are not advocating flying in thunderstorm weather. If there is nothing urgent, it is safest to wait for the flight to resume honestly.
