The Aircraft Owners Association of Guyana (AOAG) is supportive of the decision by the Guyana Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) to suspend shuttle flights to interior locations, according to Director Kit Nascimento.
“The AOAG absolutely believes that it must be safety first and there could be absolutely no compromise on standards at all,” Nascimento told a press briefing yesterday.
Director General (DG) of the GCAA Retired Lieutenant Colonel Egbert Field has said that though the suspension was a drastic decision, it was made in the interest of ensuring the travelling public’s safety, following three crashes and the deaths of two pilots.
