ZAGREB, Oct 26 (Hina) - The Croatian Government will sell its Challenger 601 aeroplane for US$15,025,000 to an American company from Texas, DDH Aviation. The selling price is greater than its purchase price several years ago, Deputy
Prime Minister Goran Granic said at Thursday's Government session. The money from the purchase of the Challenger is intended for the reconstruction of Vukovar. When the cost of the Challenger's overhaul is subtracted, about US$14.2 million will be allocated for Vukovar, Granic said. He recalled that the first public tender for the sale of Challenger was replied by five companies, and the prices offered varied from 11.4 to 14.2 million dollars. The Government, however, ran the tender again, with a note that offers should be in excess of US$15 million.(hina) lml jn
