Early 2014, ECHO has decided to open an ECHO Flight service in Chad and Mali. These services are financed until the end of April 2014 under the ECHO Flight HIP 2013 whose budget had been increased. Two additional Caravan C208 have been added to the fleet.
DAC Aviation International Ltd, a Kenya-based operator, has won the call for tender and is going to be the contract holder for the next 4 years.
The amount of the ECHO-Flight HIP 2014 was foreseen to cover the ECHO Flight service in DRC and Kenya. Decision has been taken to maintain the ECHO Flight service in Mali and Chad in addition to the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Kenya. Therefore, the present HIP is extended to cover Mali and Chad as well.
