HEAVY FOG NOT ONLY REASON FOR TRANSFER OF FLIGHTS FROM YEREVAN TO GYUMRI
YEREVAN, DECEMBER 8. ARMINFO. The last days' heavy fog in Yerevan and Ararat valley is not the only reason why flights have been transferred from Yerevan Zvartnots Airport to Gyumri Shirak Airport, says a source from Russian Aeroflot.
The true reason is the untimely preventive work on the new German air navigation equipment installed at Zvartnots.
Fog is no news in Yerevan in December and to carry out preventive work on air navigation equipment in foggy weather is like laying asphalt in Moscow during snowfall. The point is that Zvartnots cannot receive flights because its "blind landing" system is being repaired.
All this should have been done in summer in good weather, says the source.
A source from Zvartnots reports that the airport has not yet resumed its flights despite lifting fog but will as soon as gets appropriate instruction.
