"AlpiEagles SpA via Verdi, 14 35020 S.Angelo di Piove (PD)"〕 The privately owned regional airline operated scheduled passenger services linking 15 domestic destinations, as well as international services to Albania, Czech Republic, France, Romania, Russia, Spain and Ukraine. Its main base was Marco Polo International Airport), Venice. == History == The company was established in 1979 as an aerobatic team and later diversified into the executive transport market. In May 1996, Alpi Eagles started scheduled passenger services from Venice. It is owned by Interbanca, Ithifly-Veneto Svillippo and Titano-Airontours.〔 Majority of the shares were purchased by Paolo Sinigalia, owner of the Simod shoe factory in Padova, Italy. One of the decisions was to "cut" the scheduled block times (scheduled time from engine start to engine shut down) because the pilots were paid based on their block time. Flights were delayed and then the management decided to cut the scheduled turn over times. Maintenance couldn't get the airplanes fixed on time, so flights were delayed with 4 hour delays being everyday scene at Venice and Naples airports. Passengers slowly reverted to Air One Cityliner despite preferring to fly AlpiEagles airplanes for comfort. The most experienced pilots started to leave the company which was now faced with a new problem; lack of pilots. More flights were delayed or canceled due to lack of personnel, crew rest periods etc. More passengers turned to Air One Cityliner. In September 2007 the Italian Civil Aviation Authority (ENAC), informed airpassengers that Alpi Eagles license was under investigation, due to insufficient financial resources. Their licence to operate was suspended by the Italian authorities in October 2007. After legal action, a provisional license was issued by ENAC valid until 31 December 2007, but in December 2007 Alpi Eagles was forbidden to operate by ENAC, starting 1 January 2008. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alpi Eagles」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
