Minister of State, Joseph Harmon on Friday evening said that training and enhancement of skills are essential components in maintaining safety in the aviation sector in Guyana as he commended the nine pilots and eleven engineers, who completed the initial and recurrent trainings hosted by JAGS Aviation Incorporated.
A Ministry of the Presidency release said that the training was to familiarise and re-familiarise the aviators with the operations of the PZL M28-025 aircraft, popularly referred to as the ‘Skytruck M28’.
The aviation industry has come under intensified scrutiny over three shuttle flight crashes which killed two pilots. This led to a suspension of shuttle flights until operators could assure the Guyana Civil Aviation Authority of their procedures.
