MOTION OF AIR WISCONSIN AIRLINES CORPORATION

FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT

Pursuant to Rule 12 of the Department's Rules of Practice (14 C.F.R. § 302.12), Air

Wisconsin Airlines Corporation ("Air Wisconsin") hereby requests confidential treatment of

certain information contained in Schedule B-7 ., Airframes and Aircraft Engine Acquisitions and

Retirements - of Air Wisconsin's Form 41 filing for the quarter ending December 31, 2013.

This Schedule has been submitted separately pursuant to the Department's modified rules for

submission of this data, under which a redacted copy is no longer required. Air Wisconsin

requests that this data be withheld from public disclosure for a period of at least ten (10) years.

In support of this request, Air Wisconsin states as follows:

The Freedom of Information Act, 5 D.S.C. § 552(b)(4), provides that privileged or

confidential commercial and financial information obtained from a private person is specifically

2
exempted from the requirements of public disclosure due to its sensitive business nature. I The

information for which Air Wisconsin requests confidential treatment is confidential and

proprietary commercial and financial information, obtained from Air Wisconsin, a private party,

the public release of which would cause substantial competitive and financial injury to Air

Wisconsin. Accordingly, the information should be withheld from public disclosure.

The information at issue is cost, amortization/depreciation and realization data relating to

Air Wisconsin's airframes and aircraft engines as of December 31,2013. This information is

contained in columns 10-12 of Air Wisconsin's Schedule B-7. (See Index A, attached herewith).

The Department has previously determined that the confidential and competitivelysensitive data contained in the B-7 report is entitled to confidential treatment.

WHEREFORE, Air Wisconsin Airlines Corporation respectfully requests that the

confidential information contained in Schedule B-7 of its Form 41 report for the quarter ending

December 31, 2013 be withheld from public disclosure for at least ten (10) years.

Respectfully submitted,
