The story
In August 2009, Silver Fly signed a joint flight service agreement with Riau Airlines for Riau to operate services to Indonesia between Ipoh and Medan, using a Fokker 50 aircraft. However, the agreement with Riau was terminated.
Subsequently, Silver Fly leased two ATR 72 aircraft from Berjaya Air. An initial flight to Kota Baharu in Kelantan was on 6 March 2010.
The formal launching of the company was held on 16 March 2010, at the Sultan Azlan Shah Airport. Perak Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir officiated the launching. The event included the landing of a de Havilland Canada Dash 7 aircraft leased from Berjaya Air. According to the Ipoh Echo, the launch flight was also the last flight.
