Airport passes litmus test
Beijing airport was tested to its full yesterday, the eve of Olympic Games, and came out with flying colors.
The number of flights it handled was phenomenal: 1,300. But perhaps its greater test was handling more than 300 Olympic-related flights, which carried VIP guests, including heads of state.
Today will be another testing day, for more than 100 Games-related flights are scheduled to land at the airport.
