Transportation Minister Freddy Numberi has said the Merpati Nusantara Airlines MA-60 airplanes were all in good condition to fly.

“All the MA-60 planes can fly again. We have checked them technically and there were no problems,” he said as quoted by kompas.com on Sunday.

However, he said, his ministry had yet to finish a management audit on Merpati such as procedure evaluation, pilot training and simulator.

“This is still underway,” he said

A China-made Merpati MA-60 airplane crashed in West Papua recently, killing all 27 people on board.
