/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The flight recorders may be lifted already today
and most likely French specialists will lift them, Armavia air
company head Mikhail Baghdasarov said in Yerevan. In his words,
in a few days it will be possible to know how the tragedy actually
happened. He also said that the Airbus Investigation Bureau is holding
all investigation. He called not to believe to various hearsay and
versions.
“We should base ourselves on facts and they are: there was enough
kerosene, the plane was trig, the crew was trained. All the rest will
be cleared out, when flight recorders are lifted,” he said. Baghdasarov
added there were no arms and especially fight aboard. “If it were
the case, it could be heard from the land,” he said.
The air company head underscored that pilot Grigoryan was trained and
retrained in Holland and he was a qualified pilot. “As of bad weather,
it was not so bad that A-320 could not land. Old soviet airplanes could
not do it, but airbuses land in any weather,” Baghdasarov remarked.
As of further plans of the company, May 18 a new A-319, bought in
Canada, is arriving in Yerevan. “We are going to buy another airbus
and a small plane with 50-60 seats. The company buys only those plane,
which are produced after 2000. The new A-319 is assembled in 2004,”
the air company head said.
