6 MAR 07: SKY'S THE LIMIT

AMBITIOUS or what? This is the incredible vision for Dubai World Central (DWC), a 140 square kilometre urban aviation community centred around the world's largest international airport.

It's not a pipedream - construction has just started 40km from the existing Dubai International Airport. When finished, DWC will be almost twice the size of Hong Kong Island.

The developers, led by His Highness Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, and backed by the Dubai government, say it will be world's biggest passenger and cargo hub. The airport will have six parallel runways and a 92 metre high control tower that will be an aviation landmark in the Middle East.

DWC also features residential housing for 250,000 local workers, hotels, offices and leisure facilities including two 18-hole golf courses.
