The decision was made during the 5 – 7 April meeting. In some areas, 98 per cent of ICAO safety standards were not met. All airlines from Mozambique have been added because of persistent, significant safety deficiencies in operation and supervision. Three carriers are banned: Blue Wing Airlines, Meridian Airways, and Silverback Cargo Freighters.

Russia was warned to “ensure” compliance of their aircraft.

Mozambique Airlines twice weekly flights from Maputo to Lisbon which are operated under a “wet lease” agreement with a Portuguese company, EuroAtlantic Airways will continue. EuroAtlantic provides the Boeing 767-300, the crew and the maintenance.

The Mozambican Civil Aviation Institute implemented an inadequate plan for improvement; but Portugal will be assisting the country to overcome safety problems.
