The Minister of Transport and Communications made this analogy to assume that the Mozambique Airlines have problems, but that it was better to recover the company than to let it die . Mateus Magala reacted to the latest incidents at LAM. The Minister of Transport and Communications reacted, this Monday, to the frequent problems of breakdowns in aircraft operated by Linhas Aéreas de Moçambique, delays and rescheduling of flights. Mateus Magala starts by assuming that LAM has problems and that everything was never said to be ok. “We have never at any point had the illusion that our company is sick. We have never had that, but either we abandon the sick person or we treat the sick person.”, the Minister of Transport and Communications, Mateus Magala, gave his hand. And, therefore, says the ruler, “we always choose optimism and I think that optimism should be the general rule of our people. We come from many diversities and many challenges, but without optimism we cannot fulfill our potential. We have to believe in ourselves.” Regarding the constant breakdowns in the company’s planes, Mateus Magala said that the ideal solution would be to renew the fleet, but there is no money to purchase those aircraft. “If we had the financial conditions, which we hope to have one day, we could renew the fleet and equip our services more. We have more qualified staff. Therefore, it doesn’t matter if we have money, if human capacity falls short of modernization, these are factors that we have to combine. We are going to learn. . Regarding the Maputo-Lisbon flight and vice versa, Magala explains that LAM is still in the readaptation phase. “We also think that there are challenges, there will still be more that will happen because it is a new experience after 10 years without us flying. We don’t have pilots who know how to fly the Boeing 777. So, we are in the process of giving opportunities to they go and learn because aviation is science, it’s not curiosity. Curiosity is important, but science is fundamental”, revealed the Minister of Transport and Communications, adding that they, the pilots, are learning and it takes six months to “adapt get on the new machine and then we will have a Mozambican crew”. Still on the return of the LAM to European airspace, Magala said further: “we hope to soon have the plane painted in our colors, but painting a plane in our colors also requires financial costs and we have to mobilize.” Source :The country
