Presidential fleet larger than three domestic airline

  • Found this very interesting report on Punchng.com. According to the report, the Presidential Air Fleet has more aircraft that three domestic airlines combined! SMH! Read below...
    The declining fortunes of the domestic airlines have made President Goodluck Jonathan’s 10-aircraft Presidential Air Fleet larger than the fleets of three domestic airlines combined, investigations by Punch correspondent revealed on Tuesday.
    The three carriers are Chanchangi, MedView, and FirstNation airlines. Chanchangi has one aircraft; Medview Airlines, three; while FirstNation has  two.
    IRS Airlines, with five aircraft in its fleet, has only one that is currently operational. The four others have been sent overseas for routine maintenance for a long time now.
    It can be technically assumed that the Presidential Air Fleet is bigger than the four domestic airlines, according to industry experts
    Aerocontractors, the second largest domestic airline, which currently has about 12 aircraft in its fleet, is struggling under sundry debts like every other domestic airline.
     Indications have also emerged that the 10-aircraft PAF may emerge the second largest domestic          airline in the country after Arik Air, which currently has about 23 aircraft.
