The ATL signed by the NCAA Director-General, Capt. Musa Nuhu, was issued on April 22 for a period of five years. The planned return comes four years after the airline’s founder Ahmadu Chanchangi, died on April 19, 2017. He had set up the airline on January 5, 1994, but the airline suspended operations in 2012 after going through some operational turbulence resulting in the depletion of its aircraft from six to two. But the airline is set to stage a return with the ATL certification, which is preparatory to the Air Operator’s Certificate (AOC), which would enable the airline to resume flight operations. The ATL certification letter sighted by our correspondent Thursday read: “A licence to operate scheduled and non-scheduled passenger and cargo services within and outside Nigeria is hereby granted pursuant to Section 18.2.2.4 of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Regulations 2015.
