ICAO REVISERS GIVE HIGH ASSESSMENT OF AVIATION SAFETY SPHERE IN ARMENIA
YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 23. ARMINFO. The aviation safety in Armenia meets
ICAO standards, mainly. Such was the conclusion of the experts of the
Commission of the International Civil Aviation Organization and the
Conference of European Civil Aviation after inspections at relevant
structures in Armenia.
Talking to ARMINFO, Press Secretary of the Head Department of Civil
Aviation Serge Manukyan says that as a result of two-week inspections
the experts gave a high assessment of the contractual basis and the
measures taken at the airport “Zvartnots” regulating the flight safety
sphere. The experts also expressed satisfaction with the equipment of
the airport’s security services.
It should be noted that SCJSC “Armaeronavigation” works on the
up-to-date French equipment with dispatchers having rather high
qualification. “Armaeronavigation” plans service of flights at the
airport “Shirak” and “Stepanavan” to bring it to European
standards. “Armaeronavigation” serves some 20 flights daily at the
airport “Zvartnots.” Armenia has become a member of ICAO in 1992.
