    THERE WERE DRUNK PEOPLE ON THE PLANE

    Today Michael Baghdasarov, owner of the "Armavia" company, didn't
    exclude that there were drunk people on the A-320 airplane but he
    excluded the possibility of panic on the plane saying that "Dispatchers
    record all conversations and they would have recorded it as well. The
    voice of the pilot was very quiet and he spoke rather calmly."

    There was no thief on the plane. There wasn't any bustle either. I
    don't exclude the possibility that some people were drunk, but I must
    underline the fact that the bodies of many victims haven't been found
    yet. This itself testifies to the fact that they were wearing belts,
    thus there couldn't be any panic on the plane.

    Baghdasarov added that they haven't found the bodies of more that
    60 people and those found are mainly women and elderly men, which
    means that mainly men who are accused of organizing a bustle on the
    airplane wore belts.

    He also excluded the existence of weapon on the plane.

    "It is impossible to take any weapon to a plane as they check
    everything."

    Mr. Baghdasarov excluded 3 versions. "Our conclusions must be
    warranted, we have the following facts; 8 tons of kerosene testify
    that there was enough fuel on the plane. The plane underwent all the
    necessary checks, we simply mistook Belgium for Budapest, but the
    checking were made and our planes systematically undergo technical
    checking in Yerevan"

    As for the pilot's sophistication there shouldn't be any doubt on
    this score. He studied abroad and was properly trained. We don't
    possess other facts."

    Baghdasarov noted once more that the weather was terrible on that day
    but it couldn't hamper the landing. "Armenian airplanes of Soviet
    period encounter such problems in awful weather conditions whereas
    the weather is not a serious problem for "Airbus" planes."

    Baghdasarov voices hope that the record boxes will be taken out of
    the depth of the sea and they will be able to reveal the truth. "It
    is a French airplane, the investigation is held by the "Airbus"
    investigation bureau and I think that the record boxes will be
    deciphered by the French as well, though Armenians and Russians
    will also participate in the process as they are both conducting
    investigation."

    He informed the journalists that they are negotiating with the
    insurance company so that the payments will be done in time. "Today
    the representatives of the company will arrive from London. Before
    that they came from Russia. I think that the insurance money will
    be paid soon." "Armavia" has already bought a new plane and "Airbus
    319" will be in Armenia on Thursday. The airplane was transported to
    Canada, the pilots are having a rest at present and tomorrow they
    will fly to Yerevan and on Thursday evening the airplane will make
    its first flight. Baghdasarov promises that "Armavia" will hold the
    flights according to the schedule by 3 "Airbuses" and 1 "Yak 42." The
    company intends to buy a new American plane for 50-70 passengers.
