History

Sky Service Aviation was founded in 1992 and went through a relaunching and expansion in 2002. The company's headquarters were in Alcobendas, Madrid, but it had offices in Barcelona and Palma de Mallorca as well.[1][2]

On 18 August 2002 one of Sky Service Aviation's airplanes, a Learjet 35A, crash-landed at Asturias Airport. The accident involved no fatalities.[3]

The airline was bought by the MCH holding of Gestair in 2005. Following the purchase its fleet was merged into the fleet of the Gestair group.[4]

gollark: Alternatively, I secretly change my profile picture every hour to rotate it by 0.05 degrees, and that makes it do different things.
gollark: Oh no. It's nondeterministic too?!
gollark: (subject to conservation laws)
gollark: Weird. Someone else said red. Also, it is not in any way pizza. Those who claim it is pizza MAY be converted into arbitrary quantities of muon neutrinos if deemed necessary.
gollark: I haven't updated yet. By which I mean refreshed the page on my browser, as I use web discord.
