Private domestic charter airline awaiting regulatory approval for takeoff

A new private airline to be called GB is to fly the Polish skies next month. The owner of the venture Grzegorz Badziak has already received a license from the Transportation Ministry, but still awaits relevant permits from the Civil Aviation Inspectorate. GB has invested zl. 4 million to zl. 5 million in the venture and has pledged more cash as soon as all the appropriate procedures are finalized with the government authorities. According to Badziak, his firm has leased six jets and a helicopter from Carcade. The main line of business of GB will be charter flights for up to ten passengers. The firm has ruled out entering the cargo sector, as competition is too stiff. (Puls Biznesu, page 6) S.M.
