History
It started operations in November 2001 and operated passenger and freight charter services from its base at Chişinău International Airport.[2]
In June 2007, it was announced that the Republic of Moldova had withdrawn the certificate of the airline, as it was not subject to an appropriate safety oversight, and the European Commission's Air Safety Commission in addition banned the airline from flying within the European Union.[3] The airline has since resumed operations in mid-2016 using two Airbus A300 cargo aircraft.[4] However, as of early 2017 both of those aircraft had been retired again.[5]
