CRASHED A-320 AIRBUS HAS NEVER UNDERGONE TECHNICAL CHECKUP IN BRUSSELS
Yerevan, May 05. ArmInfo. The crashed –320 airbus has never undergone
technical checkup in Brussels. Karla Daniels, press secretary of
“Sabena Technics” company that was to carry out technical checkup of
the burnt Armenian planes and A-320 airbus, said in the interview to
“Liberty” Radio Station.
She denied the information, according to which A-320 airbus underwent
technical checkup in Brussels, in April. As for the incident that took
place in the repair plant of the company last night, she said that
the plane of “Armavia” and that of “Versant” company are totally
destroyed. Daniels added that at present, the experts carry out
investigation to find out whether the fire occurred as a result of
technical breakdown or a subversive act. She added that the results
of the investigation will be announced soon.
To note, Armavia’s burnt plane just like the crashed one were insured
by the Armenian company Grand. The cost of the burnt plane is estimated
at $35-38 mln. Versant’s burnt plane was insured by newly created
Armenian company H&F, which also belongs to businessman Versandik
Hakopyan. Insurance experts say that if the Belgian side is found
guilty of the fire, all the damages will have to be refunded by Sabena
Technics or its insurer.
