Dear Mr. Thomas :

This letter is to inform you that we have granted your request for exemption. It transmits our decision, explains its basis, and gives you the conditions and limitations of the exemption, including the d ate it ends.

The Basis for Our Decision

By letter dated September 27, 2012

, submitted on your behalf by J et Aviation Flight Services

, you petitioned the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for an exemption from part 91, Special Federal Aviation Regulati on (SFAR) 77 of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) to the extent necessary to allow Mondoil to conduct 14 CFR part 91 flight operations between points outside of Iraq and the Erbil International Airport (ORER)

. You

state that the aircraft will transport key executives and others in the furtherance of the business interests of Mondoil and that Jet Aviation Flight Services will provide c ertain services on your behalf, such as pilot s and security services

.

The FAA has determined that good cause e xists for not publishing a summary of the petition

in the Federal Register

, because the requested exemption would not set a precedent, and any delay in acting on this petition would be detrimental to Mondoil

.

The FAA has issued a grant of exemption in cir cumstances similar in all material respects to those presented in your petition. In Grant of Exemption No s

. 10437 and 10590 (cop ies enclosed), the FAA found that the circumstances presented by the petitioner justified a grant of exemption, the petitioner sufficiently showed that a grant of exemption would be in the2

public interest, and a level of safety equivalent to that provided by the SFAR would be

maintained.

Having reviewed your reasons for requesting an exemption, I find that

—

• they are similar in al l material respects to relief previously requested in the enclosed Grant of Exemption No s

. 10437 and 10590 ;

• the reasons stated by the FAA for granting the enclosed Grant of Exemption No s

. 10437

and 10590 also apply to the situation you present; and

• a gran t of exemption is in the public interest.

Our Decision

Under the authority contained in 49 U.S.C. 40113 and 44701, which the FAA Administrator has delegated to me, I hereby grant Mondoil Enterprises, LLC an exemption from

14 CFR part 91, SFAR 77 to the ex tent necessary to allow Mondoil to conduct part 91 operations with aircraft N 877A between points outside of Iraq and the Erbil International Airport (ORER) , subj ect to the conditions and limitations described below.
