History
Air Sylhet plc was a registered UK public limited company which had received over £1m in investment, primarily from the UK Bangladeshi Sylheti community. Air Sylhet AG was a wholly owned subsidiary of Air Sylhet plc and obtained its Austrian AOC and Operating Licence on 29 May 2008. Formal notice of its AOC and OL has been published in the Official Journal of the European Union (2008/C 178/15)[2]
