  • Snow, ice or slippery conditions are not a problem at Helsinki Airport or any other airport in Finland. The Finnish airport operator Finavia has invested plenty of resources in winter maintenance and thanks to the unique Finnish snow know-how, or 'knowhow', we are able to ensure safe conditions on the runways and smooth, timely operations even in the cold Finnish winter.
    The airports stay open in spite of snowfalls and sub-zero temperatures. The maintenance units, on call 24 for hours a day, and special machinery developed for reducing the slippery conditions of runways are the key.
    Safety is the first priority; that is why winter maintenance and anti-ice and de-icing treatments of runways are so important.
    Watch the video to see how Helsinki Airport deals with snow and ice.

    Great job! In London they have up to 5cm snow and they were paralyzed for several days... In Brussels too.
    In Paris they were out of... de-icing fluid.... tragicomedy. Heathrow has 10 old snow plow [Okecie Warsaw ariport ten... all of them last generation]. Great job Helsinki!

    This machine has a 7.3 meter wide plow in the front, a brush in the middle and a 130m/s blower at the end. All this is mounted on a Volvo A25D dumper.

    @gazeefinn I'm Finnish and I don't see anything good in healthcare. for example Canada has much better and actually free healthcare but everybody thinks that Finland has best healthcare when it sucks compared to many countries.. Btw doctors in Finland are Chinese and Indians because Finnish doctors don't get paid enough so they go to work in Norway but that has nothing to do with this video so somebody just talk about something else :/

  • @isokessu

    @Qvefjo healthcare isn't good in Finland, it's sucks. I don't know who made that up and I've heard the same million times but the doctors in Finland are from poor countries, they can't speak Finnish and they don't have enough education and you have to wait for days for anything to be done if something happens to you, if somebody shoots you or something and you don't have insurance, you have to pay from the treatment yourself if the guy doesn't get caught
