Dear Editor
WINGS Aviation provides hangar parking, ground handling and office space to AGM. This relationship has enabled the owners or Wings to further develop the skills of its staff, introducing them to a different type of aircraft and more complexed flight operations.

In addition, several Guyanese airlines which include Air Services Limited, Trans Guyana Airways, Wings Aviation and Hinterland Aviation also acts in a support flight capacity, conducting charter flights for AGM on an as needed basis. Recently, within the week of May 20, 2018, AGM has utilised these companies via charters to support its growing air service requirements. Roraima airways also does flights periodically for the company.

Caribbean Aviation Maintenance Services (CAMS) owned by the Correia group of companies, is the designated fuel service provider to AGM’s Twin Otter, accruing millions of dollars in fuel revenue. In addition, the Ogle Airport Inc organisation continually benefits from landing fees and passenger processing fees, which amounts to several million dollars monthly. All this revenue is transferred to the local economy and Guyanese.

How is it, despite the plethora of engagement that AGM has made with the entrance of its aircraft, it is still being accused of abandoning the Guyanese people? No, this is untrue! In fact, AGM has made considerable contributions to Guyanese through the introduction of its Twin Otter aircraft. It has energised the aviation sector, allowing for young Guyanese working in and around the aircraft to develop technical skills.

It provides an additional level of safety for our local and expat employees which we hold in utmost importance. It remains a top contributor to the balance sheet of Guyanese airlines through charter services and it has brought goodwill to the public as Guyanese get to see an aircraft that serviced Guyana’s hinterland during the golden years of the national airline plying the airways once more. AGM’s Twin Otter is a positive contributor to Guyana; run and maintained in partnership with Guyanese!
