    PILOTS FILE A CASE FOR PAYMENT OF THEIR SALARIES

    Employees of Armenian Airlines are going to stage a demonstration
    at the government building to demand their salaries, which they have
    not received. The total sum makes up 187 million Armenian Drams. The
    airlines employees are waiting for warmer weather to stage the
    demonstration. By that time, they have filed a case in a district
    prosecutor's office.

    Budget 2007 has been approved without any notice to the salaried of
    the pilots. Gayane Davtyan, press secretary of Civil Aviation General
    Department, says their agency does not deal with the issue and it
    must be forwarded to the government.

    A committee has been set up to conduct the sale of the property
    of the liquidated Armenian Airlines. The committee member receive
    more than 1.5 million Armenian Drams in salary. As of December 1,
    the committee had 170 million Armenian Drams and $111 thousand at
    their disposal but no payment has been made except for value added tax.

    The committee says it waits for the Law on Bankruptcy to be amended,
    which will give benefits to the pilots.

    By the time the law is adopted, very little money will be left to be
    paid for salaries.
