Entrepreneur Kazi Shafiqur Rahman, 32, hopes to see his firm Firnas Airways eventually fly long haul to the Middle East if the concept proves to be a success.

But to start with the airline, which is leasing a 19 seater Jetstream 32 plane at a cost of £8,500 a month, will fly short haul commuter routes between UK cities.

His journey towards getting his new company off the ground will feature on a Channel 4 documentary 'How to Start an Airline' tonight on Channel 4.

Nice little turboprop. Good range, decent payload. Good below-radar performance.

Sounds like a fun airline. Toilet on casters so it always faces away from mecca. Attendants read from the koooran at takeoff. No toilet paper - use left hand. Camel urine served in first class only.
