Photo Comment

Rare view of a failed Bangladeshi start-up. Two Let 410s were delivered in 2011 as far as Chittagong but did not meet standards for CAAB certification. An EASA directive required extra emergency exits and other modifications, so these two along with the other former SE Asian Airlines Let 410s were grounded at Clark Field. This one carries RP-C2928 on the other side, the other (tail just visible behind) is RP-C-2948 which was allocated S2-AEJ but not marked as such.
