Armavia Airlines disagrees with the conclusion of the Interstate
Aviation Committee on the cause of the crash of the Armenian
A320. This disagreement was stated by Arshak Nalbandyan, Armavia
executive in charge of flight safety, reports ARKA News Agency.
`The conclusion of the IAC gave a surprise to the Armenian party, for
it states that the investigation is over, which is not true,' said
Nalbandyan. He stated that the task force carrying out the
investigation did not finish the work, for he is a member of this task
force and has not signed the conclusion yet. Arshak Nalbandyan says
the Armenian side did not receive any final document except the press
release. Nalbandyan says it is possible that thecrew of the ship
could make a mistake, but he says it cannot be asserted that it was
the cause of the crash.
`It could be the fault of the dispatcher, the conditions of the
airport of Sochi, the weather, but these are only suggestions,' said
Arshak Nalbandyan.
He stated that if the work of the task force continues to be
insufficient for the Armenian party, Armavia will apply to a third,
neutral party for an independent investigation.
