Airline Operators call for the Release of Dana Air to continue commercial operation

In a letter to the Minister of Aviation and the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria dated 24th July 2012, the operators of the airline risks losing huge and significant investments in Nigeria’s fledging aviation industry.


The letter reads ‘’Dana Air currently has 5 Boeing MD83 aircraft in its fleet excluding the ill-fated Aircraft; 3 are serviceable and are on ground on MMA2, while 2 are currently undergoing the statutory C-Checks at the MyTechnic Engineering Base in Turkey’’.

It also added that the preliminary report on the Accident released by the AIB did not indict Dana Airline of any wrong doing. The Airline operators added that Dana is also fully committed to assisting the families of those who lost their lives, as well as properties, during the incident, and has already begun compensating the families in accordance with the law.

The management decry the trend of grounding Airlines and phasing out of a particular fleet of Aircrafts each Accident is becoming a re-curring culture in the Nigerian Aviation Industry as it is contrary to the practice in most of the ICAO member countries.
