out in the water??? Don't they realize the bird strikes could be many. It's happened in JFK again...
I mean they have all that desert out there...
Plus the structures n tarmac wouldn't be sinking...
@whyteknight, you should read more detailed, in the website they said to open official on July 2011 not open by 2010. now The New Doha International Airport is under construction, some of area are finished but still remaining about decoration and landscape.
why did they build the New Doha International Airport?
- Opportunity job, I heard that when New Airport finish, vacancy job 50,000 position
- Qatar Vision look forward for International Country
- Good for Economic and Increase investment from foreign
I thought it was being built in order that those unfortunates who are required to endure the 45 minute immigration queues time after time after time ........ad finitum,whilst the girls paint their nails and talk to "someone" on their surgically inplanted mobiles, will have lovely new surroundings in which to ponder the lack of joined up Qatari thinking..........
Has anyone apart from me noticed that they are planning to open a new arrival terminal near the Ras Aboud intersection right next to the Teyseer Petrol station? this is until the New Doha International Airport is ready..:)
responsible must have done all the necessary research and innovations to ensure such calamities don't take place.. Allahu alam. Whatever the reason its surely gotta beat the current airport!
I do not know, BUT i was thinking - I could be wrong
1) Maybe it is close to the current airport,
2) Maybe in case of a crash landing. A desert landing will kill almost all whereas a water landing will save a lot of lives. - Bechtel know what they are doing, i suppose.
3) Out of public way, the current airport flight path is over wakra and on the other side west bay hotels.
Just my thoughts, also, it maybe because of the scienic view.
Yeah when it snows no one can get to or out of the Denver airport, our past mayor Pena made that phenomenal screw up and made some farm folk very rich. Did you know the horse sculpture at the entry to the airport fell on the artist and killed him, its a big blue horse statue with red eyes, I think its evil looking. The artists son had to finish it.

I may of course be wrong .......
is for the Asian Football Cup Delegates in January.
I remember they put up a temporary arrival terminal in the same location in 2006 for the Asian Games Delegates.
could it be a cargo terminal?
Or is it for the QA budget airlines?
I'll never see it...

keep that area clean kilometers around, to avoid bird strike, to sustain safety measures.

And it's just out of town...
Oh wait they needed the space for a water park...
Lot of jobs,
Many company can involve to take contract,
Make a huge project.
Big capital.
Shortly That is a engineering plane.
They haven't built the new airport..
They are "Building" the new airport, to provide employment for 20 years for a vast number of individuals..
Funnily enough their website still says, open by 2010

Vegas, bird strikes happen all over, if yo go to Hong Kong, or even Kathmandu...
they must innovate to spend money,with that many live.
It's out on the range in the middle of nowhere.
Like a 45 min drive to town.
Its the ambience and the need to be innovative..
Airport in the desert would be out of the way and boring..
