(Trinidad Express) Former works and transport minister Colm Imbert has said the authorities must move swiftly to determine what caused the Caribbean Airlines (CAL) aircraft to crash-land as this would affect the airline’s ratings and ability to fly freely into different countries.
Speaking to the Express by phone on Monday, Imbert pointed out that CAL has an unblemished safety record for the past 70 years.
He said the crash-landing of the CAL aircraft on Saturday at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport in Guyana would have an impact on the airlines’ safety ratings.
“One would expect that the Federal Aviation Administration (in the United States) would check the plane because I am told the plane is registered with the FAA,” said Imbert.
