Holland Aero Leasing was formed in 1978 to undertake contract charter and leasing operations. Lightplane flight activities begin in Jul1978. Between 1979-1982, nonscheduled flight opportunities are undertaken with a fleet comprising Piper PA-31-310 Navajo and PA-31-350 Navajo Chieftain equipment. When Air U. K. surrenders its Southend-Rotterdam route in September 1983, HAL bids for and receives the service. During 1984, corporate reorganization to meet the scheduled challenge is undertaken. A new company was formed; Holland Aero Leasing remained as a division while the new airline division, Holland Aero Lines, is formed to assume the ex-Air U. K. operation. Two GAF Nomad 24As, the first of the Australian-built commuters to be purchased by a European regional, are acquired and readied for service. Scheduled Rotterdam-Southend and Norwich service was inaugurated on 04Feb1985. During the summer, two Avions de Transport Regional ATR42s are ordered and are received late in the year. Unable to generate the traffic to cover the costs of expansion, the company enters receivership in early 1988
