Commission Regulation (EC) No 474/2006 (2) established
the Community list of air carriers which are subject to an
operating ban within the Community referred to in
Chapter II of Regulation (EC) No 2111/2005.

In accordance with Article 4(3) of Regulation (EC) No
2111/2005, some Member States communicated to the
Commission information that is relevant in the context
of updating the Community list. Relevant information
was also communicated by third countries. On this
basis, the Community list should be updated.

The Commission informed all air carriers concerned
either directly or, when this was not practicable,
through the authorities responsible for their regulatory
oversight, indicating the essential facts and considerations
which would form the basis for a decision to impose on
them an operating ban within the Community or to
modify the conditions of an operating ban imposed on
an air carrier which is included in the Community list.

Air carriers from Equatorial Guinea

The undertaking Cronos Airlines has
informed the
Commission that it has been granted an Air Operator's
Certificate by the authorities of Equatorial Guinea. Since
this new air carrier has been certified by the authorities
of Equatorial Guinea which have shown a lack of ability
to carry out adequate safety oversight,
it should be
included in Annex A.

The authorities of Equatorial Guinea have provided the
Commission with updated information regarding the
operations of the carriers certified by these authorities.
In particular, these authorities have stated that Guinea
Airways has ceased its operations. However, there is no
evidence of withdrawal of the Air Operator's Certificate
of that air carrier. Therefore, without such information,

The first update report, submitted by the Albanian Civil
Aviation Authority on 5 November 2007, shows that the
competent authorities of Albania have made progress in
the implementation of the said action plan and that they
intend to have completed its implementation by the end
of 2008. Their commitment to improve their aviation
safety oversight capabilities has been further corroborated
by the report of the last assessment visit conducted in
Albania from 22 to 26 October 2007 within the
the European Common Aviation Area
framework of
(ECAA).

The Commission intends to keep monitoring the imple-

the corrective action plan through the
agreed regular updates to be submitted by the Albanian
Authorities. Member States intend to verify systematically
the effective compliance with relevant safety standards
through ramp inspections to be carried out on aircraft
of these air carriers.

Air carriers from the Republic of Moldova

The Commission has reviewed the corrective action plan
of the competent authorities of the Republic of Moldova
