YEREVAN, July 16. /ARKA/. Akila Technics, a company of Akila Group,
which is based in Zvartnots Airport, is the first Armenian company
to provide aircrafts with technical services.
Karen Avdalyan, the founder of Akila, told journalists on Tuesday
that aircrafts in Armenia had been served by foreign companies before,
and now the company is trying to win dominance in the market.
"The market consists of aircrafts that serve flights to Armenia -
20 to 30 aircrafts and $50,000-60,000 a month," he said.
He said that now the company serves four airplanes - three aircrafts
of Air Armenia and one presidential liner, but if the company works
successful, it will build a hangar.
Avdalyan said now investments in the company amounts to about $800,000,
but the construction of the hangar is estimated to cost $2.5 million.
He said the company has employed 23 people who have been trained
in Europe's flagship aviation establishments and after gained work
experience abroad returned to Armenia.
"The appearance of an Armenian company with Armenian specialists
makes it possible to pursue a more flexible price policy and to be
more competitive," he added.

certificate received from the General Department of Civil Aviation
of Armenia in conformity with international requirements. The
certificate allows the company to serve Boeing 737-300/400/500 and
