On 14 September the State Committee on Property (SCP) will hold an auction for the sale of three Mi-8MTV1. This is another attempt to sell through the auction these helicopters produced in 1991-1993. The starting price for the helicopters has not changed, and is 130 023, 134 271 and 134 323 AZN. The SCP noted that these helicopters are not suitable for use, but can be used after the reconstruction and modernization. Recently the Russian holding "Helicopters of Russia" announced plans to open in Azerbaijan a Center to repair of helicopters Mi-8/17. The corresponding agreement is expected to be signed at the exhibition ADEX-2016 by the end of September. It provides for the opening of businesses on the basis of Silk Way Helicopter Services service center in Baku for maintenance and overhaul of helicopter equipment. 08D
