At its peak in 1996-1997, Liberia Airways had several hundred employees, international routes to over a dozen of West African countries, and operated a small fleet of USSR-built aircraft Antonov An-26, Antonov An-24, Mi-8. Charles Taylor (former leader of the National Patriotic Front of Liberia (NPFL), former president of the Republic of Liberia, and convicted war criminal) played a critical personal role in the demise of the company. Due to his open animosity towards Liberia Airways because of its neutral stance during the civil war, the company was forced to relocate its operational base first to Conakry, Guinea and then Banjul, Gambia. Liberia Airways ceased active operations by the end of 1998. == Fleet == As of August 2006, the Liberia Airways fleet includes: *1 Antonov An-26〔Flight International, 3–9 October 2006〕 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「Liberia Airways」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
