ECAC NOTES PROGRESS IN ARMENIA
YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 14, ARMENPRESS; Before wrapping up a visit to Armenia,
Kis Laszlo, the chairman of the European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC),
commended today in Yerevan the Armenian Civil Aviation Department for doing
a great deal of work to meet European aviation requirements, both in terms
of legislation and safety measures. He said the progress is important for
Armenia's cooperation with European carriers within the frameworks of the
European Neighborhood Policy (ENP).
Chief of Armenian Civil Aviation Department, Artiom Movsesian said
delegation members took a close look into what Armenia did to meet European
safety requirements. He said the findings of the ECAC will serve as a basis
for development of a plan of actions which Armenia should implement until
next February. Asked to comment on Belgium's decision to include Armenian
Air Van Airlines into its list of air companies which are not allowed to
land in that country, Laszlo said there is no official list approved by the
European Union and every country has its own.
Movsesian added that the company was given two months to eliminate the
shortcomings. He said the Department will hire an international auditing
firm to check the books of those Armenian carriers which operate outside
Armenia. Thirteen Armenian 13 carriers were licensed to operate flights.
Altogether they run 50 aircrafts.
ECAC was founded as an intergovernmental organization by the Conference
on the Co-ordination of Air Transport in Europe ( CATE) in Strasbourg in
1955. In close liaison with ICAO and the Council of Europe, ECAC's aim is to
promote the continued development of a safe, efficient and sustainable
European air transport system that has regard to environmental requirements.
ECAC is composed of 37 Member States.
