On 31 October 2007, Mongolian aviation authorities suspended Aero Mongolia flights after the airline failed safety checks. In the first quarter of 2008, Aero Mongolia received the license to fly on domestic routes. The airline's operations were suspended from January to May 2009 due to the Mongolian Civil Aviation's doubt of flight safety. On 30 March 2012, Aero Mongolia Fokker 50 aircraft Reg. JU-8257, during takeoff roll in Oyutolgoi Airport, skidded off the runway and the right engine propeller was damaged due to colliding with the side runway lights.
