FlyNamibia neither bid on, nor bought Air Namibia plane – Compion
FlyNamibia yesterday reiterated that it neither bought nor did it bid to buy liquidated Air Namibia’s aircraft, contrary to allegations made to government by one of the companies interested in acquiring the grounded planes.
The allegation was made by aviation partners Progress Aviation and AB Airlines in a letter, dated 15 November, to acting public enterprises minister Iipumbu Shiimi.
André Compion, managing director and part owner of FlyNamibia, clarified that his company did not buy the aircraft.
“Any information to the contrary is simply untrue,” he said.
Air Namibia officials yesterday told Namibian Sun the planes have been sold, but Compion said his company is not party to such transactions.
“We’re not in the business of buying aircraft, we lease them. We’ve never made any offer for those aircraft and are not part of any consortium that may be involved,” he said.
