PART 4 - FINANCIAL POSmON AND OPERATING PLANS 

A. Before being granted effective authority, an applicant must provide independen~ third party 

verification that it has available to it resources sufficient to cover all of its pre-operating costs 

plus the operating expenses that are reasonably projected to be incurred by the applicant during 

three months of "normal" commuter operations. 

1bis is a successful company that operates profitably. In a following page is the detailed 

breakdown of income and expenses for 12 months, including the first 3 mOt;lths with no income. 

The ultimate proof of financial stability for those 12 months is in the prior history of the nearly 

3 years of operation of this company. 

1. There are no current pre-operating costs. City Wings, Inc. has been providing airline flight 

service for nearly 3 years with an Air Taxi Certificate. Those pre-operating costs arose and were 

paid for before the original start-up. 

2. For third party verification of sufficient funds, attached is a letter from the Merchants 

Commercial Bank: officer in whose department the account is located that contains the necessary, 

essential funds. The amount shown is in excess of the amount required for the first 3 months of 

operation. The account is in the name of Lewis Investments, Inc. Lewis Investments, Inc. is 

100% owned by Don Lewis. That account is used for receiving income and for paying expenses 

of City Wings, Inc. 

B. Data Required 

1. Balance sheets and income statements of the applicant: 

a See the attached letter as to who prepared the financial documents, his qualifications, 

relationship to the applicant and a statement that they were prepared in accordance with 

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles .. 

b. See the attached letter of the independent third party source regarding the review of the 

fmancial information submitted.

PART 6 - RELIABILITY 

This information is required about an applicant that wishes to be designated by the Department 

to provide '"essential air service". 

During the nearly 3 years of operation as an on-demand & charter service, City Wings, Inc has 

been providing reliable air service between St. Thomas and St.Croix for local citizens and the 

following Virgin Islands government departments: 

1. Education 

2. Legislature 

3. Governor's office 

4. Police 

5. Fire 

6. National Guard 

7. Water and Power Authority 

This is service that is essential because the government and many local citizens have been 

operating with very limited funds, particularly during this recession period. They selected us 

because we are not only reliable, but have the lowest price and have therefore provided 

important, immense savings. Our price is approximately 20% to 30% lower than the 

competition. We need approval to operate as a commuter air carrier in order to continue to 

provide these savings. 

For Reliability: 

1. Back-up: We have 2 Cessna Model 208 Caravan planes. We normally only use one at a time. 

The second plane is for back-up. 

2. Fuel arrangements: We have a 2,800 gallon fuel truck at the airport on St. Croix plus a second 

one available to us there as back-up. We have an account for the purchase of fuel directly with 

the Hovensa Refinery on St. Croix. We presently pay $2.60 for each gallon delivered into our 

truck. 

3. On-time and completion: As the holder of an FAA certificate providing on-demand & charter 

services, we have treated all of our flights as on-demand and charter. We have not kept records of 

on-time and completion. With exceptions due to weather, we have completed all of our flights.
