Ghana's aviation blessed with relatively good weather

Accra, Feb. 13, GNA - Dr Brock Friesen, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Starbow Airlines, said Ghana's aviation industry is blessed to have only about five to ten days of bad weather (Harmattan) every year compared with other countries.

He said countries like Sweden, Norway, Canada and Denmark had to deal with about five months of fog, snow, frost, typhoons and hurricanes, which did not happen in Ghana and added: "This is child's play, compared to other parts of the world".

Dr Friesen, who was speaking to the GNA in an interview on the effects of the harmattan on operations of the airline, said poor visibility had affected flights of Starbow.
