Dmitriy Atbashyan: The date of the first flight from Stepanakert airport is not known yet

 Next week the Stepanakert airport will get an official certificate that will allow reception and flight of aircrafts. However, the date of the first flight from the Stepanakert airport is not known yet, the head of Civil Aviation Department under the government of Nagornyy Karabakh Republic, Dmitriy Atbashyan, told ArmInfo correspondent.

"The given certificate allows reception and flight of ircrafts. But there are some limits because of non-availability of certain conditions, for instance, lightening of the platform. For this reason, flights will be implemented at daylight and if there is no frosting", - Atbashyan said. He declined to specify the date of the first flight saying it does not depend on him. As for the type of aircraft that will implement the first flight, at present, he cannot make such information public.
