Italian police seize more aircraft parts.
AIRLINE INDUSTRY INFORMATION-(C)1997-2002 M2 COMMUNICATIONS LTD
Italian police have seized Airbus A300 aircraft parts belonging to Panaviation - a company at the centre of a large-scale investigation into suspected fraudulent sale of second-hand aircraft parts to major airlines.
The police reportedly found unqualified people stripping an Airbus A300 aircraft belong to Panaviation at Rome's Fiumicino airport on 26 January. This raid was the second seizure of parts following the confiscation on 25 January of aircraft parts from a ship in the port of Naples.
The investigation, which is in collaboration with both the US Federal Aviation Administration and the FBI, is looking into any possible links between Panaviation parts and two air crashes - an Airbus which crashed into the New York suburb of Queens last November, killing 265, and a domestic airline accident in Italy in 1999, reported Reuters.
