Sanctions hitting hard Iran’s aviation industry

The head of Iran Air has said sanctions have grounded the company’s old fleet of airplanes.

 

 
Farhad Parvaresh told Mehr News that despite lifting of sanctions on Iran’s aviation industry Britain’s Rolls-Royce had not agreed to send Iran the plane parts, a fact that had grounded many of Iran Air’s old Fokker planes. “8 planes out of a fleet of 27 planes are always on their maintenance and repair half-life; and 10 others suffer grounding due to lack of engine and fuselage parts,” he added, hoping that the recent month attempts of the company would operate some of these planes.
