The board seats seems bad and so does the arrangement where the foreign owner also provides the planes.

I suppose you can argue that a minority foreign owner being the same entity that the planes are leased from gives that entity an outsized amount of control. But otherwise, my understanding is that leasing planes from (potentially) foreign companies is just the way modern airlines work.

Yes, most airlines lease planes, this is a big issue in Russia right now.

But if the leasing terms included controlling interest in the company, that would be a different story.
