YAOUNDE, Jan. 25 (Xinhua) -- The two MA60 planes acquired by the Cameroonian government from China for the national carrier, Cameroon Airlines Corporation (Camair-Co), began operations over the weekend between the capital Yaounde and Douala, the commercial capital.
The inaugural flight had on board Cameroon's Transport Minister Edgard Alain Mebe Ngo'o, China's ambassador to Cameroon Wei Wenhua, the vice-president of Avic International which manufactured the planes Xu Bo and many other Cameroonian political and business leaders.
"I am a witness of the reliability of these planes," the transport minister said in his speech at a ceremony organized at Yaounde-Nsimalen international airport, at the end of the inaugural flights of the two aircrafts as the country awaits the official start of commercial flights in March.
The minister recalled that since 2012, the Cameroonian defense and security forces have made successful missions using the MA60 planes. China-made aeroplanes launch operations in Cameroon - Xinhua | English.news.cn
