Camair-Co delays MA-60 operations
Camair-Co has delayed the inaugural flights of its MA-60 fleet until later this month, ch-aviation reports.
The delay has been caused by a dispute between the carrier and the Cameroonian Ministry of Transportation (AAC) over the aircrafts’ operational performance.
Minister of Transport Edgard Alain Mebe Ngo'o confirmed the delay in flights, but claimed it was due to organisational glitches.
Sources at Camair-Co, however, told the Journal du Cameroon that in spite of the AAC type-certified the aircraft last year, it now shows reservations about the safety of the aircraft.
The carrier took delivery of the two MA-60s in March of last year, in hope to deploy the aircraft onto domestic and regional routes currently served by a B737-700.
