Original Korean Read in English

제주국제공항에서 발생한 감사 결과, 허용 기준을 초과한 42.5m 길이의 비행기 주행이 밝혀졌습니다. 한국공항공사는 2024년 1월부터 4월까지 4차례 이러한 비행기를 제주공항에 주행했으며, 이는 허용된 39.5m 길이의 비행기보다 3m 더 긴 것입니다. 공항은 '공항·비행장시설 및 이착륙장 설치기준' 제41조를 따르고 있으며, 각 주기장마다 수용 가능한 최대 기종을 규정하고 있습니다. 그러나 제주공항은 이러한 42.5m 길이의 비행기를 주행한 것에도 불구하고, 후면 도로와 여유 공간이 충분히 마련돼 있어 안전 위험은 낮다고 판단했습니다.

한국공항공사는 감사 결과에 대해 논쟁없이 받아들였으며, 제주공항장에게 배정 및 조정 업무를 담당하는 직원과 항공사·지상조업사에게 주기장별 최대 허용 기준에 대한 교육을 실시했습니다. 또한, 2024년부터 4월까지 28차례 진행된 활주로 마찰력 측정 중 22차례에서는 타이어 선택이 적절하지 않았다는 사실이 드러났습니다. 이로 인해 활주로 마찰력이 과소 평가되었습니다. 마찰측정 장비의 점검일지도 최신화되지 않았습니다.

한국공항공사는 이러한 감사 결과로 총 55건의 위법 및 부적정 업무 처리를 경고, 시정 및 주의 등을 통보했습니다.

The ruling party has expressed concerns over allegations of intervention in the judiciary, saying that the judiciary should instead resume trials involving the president. On the 29th, Rep. Jang Dong-hyuk of the ruling Democratic Party of Korea said at a press conference at the National Assembly that, “If the allegations are true, it is a serious issue that undermines the separation of powers and the rule of law,” and added, “The judiciary should respond to this issue with a strong sense of responsibility.” Regarding the recent controversy over Justice Minister Han Dong-hoon’s personnel intervention in the judiciary and Chief Justice Lee Hong-seok’s emergency meeting with prosecutors, Rep. Jang said, “The judiciary should be careful in its response,” and added, “The judiciary should show the people that it is not shaken by the executive or legislative branches.” Rep. Jang emphasized, “The judiciary should resume trials involving the president and high-ranking government officials,” and said, “In particular, the trial of former President Park Geun-hye and President Moon Jae-in’s corruption case should be resumed quickly.” On the same day, Rep. Cho Huide of the main opposition People Power Party also held a press conference and said, “The people will not acknowledge a judiciary that is under the control of the executive or legislative branches,” and added, “The judiciary should restore the public’s trust.” Earlier on the 28th, Rep. Kim Chong-in, the interim leader of the People Power Party, also expressed concerns over allegations of intervention in the judiciary, saying, “If true, it is a serious threat to democracy.” On the 27th, it was reported that Minister Han Dong-hoon had exercised influence over the judiciary, including recommending the reversal of a high court ruling in a case involving the prosecution’s appeal. On the same day, Chief Justice Lee Hong-seok reportedly held an emergency meeting with prosecutors and recommended that they appeal a case involving a former justice minister.
