The airline is wholly owned by the Government of the Marshall Islands. In January 2009, all flights were suspended while the airline's only plane, a 34-seat Bombardier Dash 8, suffered wing damage after colliding with a FAA antenna tower while being towed. Replacement parts were ordered, but flights were further delayed when the replacement part that arrived in February was for the wrong wing.
