YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 12, NOYAN TAPAN. Experts of International Civil
Aviation Organization (ICAO) will visit Armenia in June to conduct an
audit of aviation safety work. Aram Marutian, Head of the RA Civil
Aviation Air Transportation Regulation and Licence Department, told
reporters that such audits were conducted last year, during which
some shortcomings were revealed and eliminated.
A. Marutian said that as of February 2007, 24 (including Express
Line and Armenian International Airways) out of the 36 airlines,
which received a plane operation permission, were deprived of their
licences. In his words, either the licence terms of these airlines
expired or they have no planes, which is a requirement to have
a licence.
