A group of Azerbaijani aviators received state and departmental awards and honorary titles on June 28. More than 50 civil aviation workers of Azerbaijan were awarded medals, orders and honorary titles.

“The hard work and professionalism of Azerbaijani aviators is a significant contribution to the development of the country, which is highly noted by the President of Azerbaijan, Mr. Ilham Aliyev. This attention from the President of the country is an important motivation for each employee of the civil aviation of the country. The head of state has always paid special attention to the civil aviation of the country; there have been significant and serious changes in our field, and major promising projects on civil aviation of the country have been implemented under his leadership. National leader of the Azerbaijani people Heydar Aliyev said that the most important task of “Azerbaijan Airlines” is to ensure flight safety. Every employee of the civil aviation of the country follows this instruction,” said Jahangir Asgarov.
