Oct 31, 2017 (newstodate): Kyrgyzstan places high priority on developing its civil aviation business to comply with ICAO and other pertinent standards - and be lifted off the EU Black List.
Hopes are now that the ongoing process to implement all required standards will be completed by the end of 2018, aiming at being lifted off the Black List in 2019.
To secure the process, the Kyrgyz state has allocated substantial means, and funds for exiting the black list will be included in the Kyrgyz state budget for 2018.
In the country are now 22 airlines, 10 of which operate on own AOCs. Four carrier are dedicated to passenger transportation, while the remaining carriers are cargo and special airlines.
As a recent move, the country's Ministry of Transportation has approved that Kyrgyz airline may hire foreign pilots to operate aircraft types that do not have sufficient supply of licensed Kyrgyz cockpit crews.
Since 2007, all Kyrgyzstan's carriers have been on the EU Black List barring them from operating into EU markets.
