    Syria-bound Armenian plane departs after cargo inspection in Turkey



    A Syria-bound Armenian plane was allowed Thursday to continue to Syria
    after Turkish authorities completed inspection of its cargo. ERZURUM A
    Syria-bound Armenian plane was allowed Thursday to continue to Syria
    after Turkish authorities completed inspection of its cargo.

    The plane made a technical landing earlier in the morning in the
    eastern province of Erzurum for the inspection. Turkish diplomatic
    sources said an Armenian airlines company applied on Tuesday to the
    Turkish civil aviation authority to use Turkish airspace to carry 15
    tons of humanitarian aid bound from Yerevan to Aleppo. Sources said
    the Armenian airlines company was informed it could use the Turkish
    airspace on the condition that it made technical landing in Turkey.

    Sources also added that the technical landing was a routine procedure
    in line with the 1944 Chicago Civil Aviation Convention.

    Last month another Syria-bound Armenian plane made a technical landing
    in Turkey for the inspection of its cargo. The plane was allowed to
    continue to Syria after the inspection.
