The Air Force Base Tamale together with other stakeholders have collaborated with the Ghana Airport Company Limited (GACL) to organise an Operational Readiness and Airport Transfer (ORAT) for the new Tamale International Airport.

The ORAT afforded stakeholders the opportunity to test the systems and structures at the new facility prior to its commissioning. Personnel from the various Wings were deployed in various capacities to assist with the transition process.

The contributions by the Air Force Base Tamale led to a successful commissioning of the new terminal by the Vice President of Ghana, HE Dr Mahamudu Bawumia on Tuesday 22 August 2023.
