Luanda – The monitoring of the execution of building works, rehabilitation, recovery and modernisation of various airport infrastructures throughout the country, in the year 2011, by the National Civil Aviation Institute (INAVIC), deserves a positive mark for last year’s review of institutional performance.
   

As a proof of that statement, it is the success being achieved with the recovery programme of airports and airfields, which was executed by the National Firm of Air Navigation and Airports Exploration (ENANA), whose supervision by INAVIC was influential. 

 
The aviation watchdog was also fundamental in following-up works such as the modernisation of the airports of Luanda, Cabinda, Benguela, Catumbela, Ondjiva, Mbanza Congo, Malanje, Menongue, Luena, Namibe and Karianda, besides other airfields.

As it has been recently stated by the Angolan Head of State, in a speech at the National Assembly (Parliament), “the sub-programme of the transports sector is the one that has grown the most, and to prove this, you have the airports for everyone to see (…)”.  

Therefore, the National Civil Aviation Institute has been fulfilling its mission, alongside other institutions linked to the sectors of aviation and aeronautics.

 
Still last year, INAVIC withdraw the licence of six air companies and forbade them to fly, until they regularise their situation.

 
Thus, INAVIC hopes that with the execution of some of its projects, flying operations in Angola in the coming years can be safer and more efficient.
