Commando Operations

July 1975* to 1981*

OASIS purchased a Commando from Air America in July 1975. That Commando was wet-leased out to Kris Air of Singapore in the early 1980's.

From June 1978, it also started leasing three Commandos from Wayne Craft of Jackson, MS. The first one was operated as a cargo aircraft, the second one was never registered and probably never used, while the third one diverted to Guam during ferry and never made it to Manila.
