The company was incorporated in 2006 to produce sport aircraft in the United Arab Emirates for the European market using German certification. The company used modern numerical control manufacturing machinery.[3]

By early 2019 the company website domain was for sale and the company has likely ceased operations.[5]

The AiroAV company produced two designs. The Airo 1, a licensed development of the Italian Euro Ala JetFox microlight and the Airo 5 fibreglass two seat light touring aircraft, a licensed version of the Urban Air Samba. Both aircraft were intended for the US light-sport aircraft market, but as of September 2016 neither appeared on the Federal Aviation Administration's list of approved LSAs.[1][2][6][7]
