Alleged to be one of the Corsican charter airlines associated with moving drugs out of the region. Headed by Roger Zoile and managed by Bonaventure "Rock" Francisci. The charter airline was reported to be allied with Paul Louis Levet's Bangkok-based Corsican syndicate. Operations ceased when Gen Ouane Rattikone took control of Laotian drug activities. Listed aircraft represent later period. Other unidentified aircraft probably were involved during the earlier years
