"Starting from November 1, 2012, Kazakhstan bans the use of the airplanes not complying with ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) standards. Thus, over 20 An-24 and Yak-40 planes will be decommissioned.

They will be Airbus, Boeing and Embraer planes mainly," Seidakhmetov said. Besides, the official pointed at the positive dynamics of growth of passenger and freight transportation, flights regularity, transit traffic and upgrade of the aircrafts pool. "In 2011 Kazakhstan air companies carried 4.1 million people, which is 17 percent more than in 2010. The growth of passenger traffic made 15 percent in the first 6 months of 2012. Kazakhstan passenger and freight air companies own 112 aircrafts, including 60 Western-made and 52 Soviet-made planes," he said.
