Hi all. Just a bit of clarification on the above. I'm sat in La Paz watching the evening news as I type. The Minister of Public Works wrote to AASANA today requiring that TAM suspend commercial civilian flights for failing to meet ICAO operational safety requirements. This is what is also being currently reported online. However, while there were some cancellations earlier, TAM are very much still operating this evening. TV is showing both a copy of the letter to AASANA and live footage from one of the Santa Cruz airports.
