Pasay City – The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) conducted a joint inspection of the 18-story New Clark Control Tower project at Clark International Airport on March 25, 2025.

The inspection was led by Civil Aviation Area Manager Glenn Tripulca of Area Center III, alongside representatives from the Air Traffic Service (ATS), Clark Control Tower, Clark Air Navigation Services (ANS), and the Clark International Airport Corporation (CIAC) Project Management Office.
