A department under the Ministry of Transport has proposed state agencies to put a stop to the study of a straight-line route for airliners proposed by Dr Tran Dinh Ba.
A department under the Ministry of Transport has proposed state agencies to put a stop to the study of a straight-line route for airliners proposed by Dr Tran Dinh Ba .
The Transport Department has sent a document to the ministry and relevant state agencies to clarify the study that is said to help the national flag carrier Vietnam Airlines (VNA) to reap more profits.
The document said Dr Ba has the right to continue his own study if he can get the financing from any local carriers which think the study is profitable for them.
The department, which chaired a meeting between relevant state agencies and Dr Ba on February 13, said the study is the same to that submitted to the Civil Aviation Administration of Vietnam three years ago by retired pilot Mai Trong Tan and former air commander Le Trong Sanh.
The proposal had been discussed in many seminars and conferences, after which the Prime Minister put an end to the discussion and research regarding the proposed straight air route.
The data about the flying distances in the study do not match the reality, said the department.
Regarding the formulas used in the study which are invented by Dr Ba, the meeting had concluded that the author should bring them to authorized scientific committees for verification.
Once those formulas are verified, the economical factors suggested by the study can be reconsidered, said the department.
If the study is realized, the flight routes from Hanoi-based Noi Bai Airport to the southern region will create at least 12 and 4 airway intersections across the borderlines of Vietnam and Laos-Cambodia respectively.
It will also create a minimum of 24 and 29 airway intersections for air routes within Vietnam and in the three countries respectively.
The opposite flight routes from the Ho Chi Minh City-based tan Son Nhat Airport will have 14, 4, 19, and 34 such airway intersections respectively.
The department has also sent a letter showing its gratitude towards Dr Ba for his research.
| In the project titled "A profitable business plan for VNA under Tran Dinh Ba Methodology," Dr Ba writes that if the current air routes are replaced with straight routes passing through the airspace of Cambodia and Laos, VNA could save a great deal of fuels, and make huge profits. The new air route would bear the cost of only 5 percent of the total expense to pay the transit fee in Laos, and Cambodia, but could gain back 20 percent. |
