What types of aircraft do operators have in Iraq?

Local companies' fleets include the Leonardo A109E, Hawker 800XP, and Bombardier CRJ200. We select the specific aircraft for the task from this fleet and from aircraft in neighboring countries.

Why look at the operator's AOC?

An air operator certificate (AOC) is issued by the aviation authorities of the country of registration and defines flight regulations, crew requirements, and dispute resolution procedures.
