It's very big deal , this time the airplane system worked fine and they could not blame it , here some one if did his job correctly 15 people were still alive. and it was clear that the airplane could not land on that airway its a big deal because it was not the first one and previously a passenger plane nearly escaped the same fate.
those runways are only 10km apart and they are virtually in line , honestly that's a big mistake any plane that want to land in Payam Airport first will see fath Airport runway in the same bearing and same line under himself and if the captain is not aware of the situation he may make such fatal mistake .
to be honest , they need to do something about that runway , the least they can do is to destroy it and build another one but this time make it north south, and they have enough space there for that.
Actually the cheapest way would be to 1st have ground control warn each pilot upon approach to make sure not to confuse the two runways on every landing and they can also change the landing approach from west to east or they can make GPS a requirement on every jet aircraft that lands there....
They can also add a relatively low cost surveillance thermal imaging camera monitor each landing and approach....
And all these options put together would still be cheaper than building a new runway..
And there is no reason to destroy the runway at the IRGC Helo base when all you have to do is paint it in a way that it looks less like an Airport Runway.....
