Bulgaria has received official confirmation from the manufacturer that the first of the medical helicopters ordered by the country will fly from Italy to Bulgaria on January 31. On January 29, the last test flight with a Bulgarian crew on board will take place in Italy. This is what Minister of Transport Georgi Gvozdeikov has told BNR.
