HEAD OF ARMAVIA AIRLINE DISAGREES WITH IAC CONCLUSIONS

Yerevan, August 23. ArmInfo. Head of the Armenian national airline Armavia, Mikhail Baghdasarov, categorically disagrees with the conclusions of the International Aviation Committee (IAC) on the results of the investigation of A- 320 crash near Sochi on May 3. To recap, under IAC made a conclusion that the reason of the crash was human factor, i.e. the faults of the crew.

In an interview to Haykakan Zhamanak, M. Baghdasarov says: “What was shown to us was not right.” He says none of the Armenian party representatives participating in the investigation have signed any document so far. In such conditions, no final resolution is possible, he says. The fact that IAC published its version of the resolution is a gross violation of international aviation rules. Under these rules, a resolution on the results of a crash investigation is made subject to the fact that the resolution is final. While, it requires signatures of all the parties of the investigation, Baghdasarov says.
