To date, no good cause or sufficient explanation for the failure to provide an answer to the Complaint was profferedby Respondent. 12. The Agency made the following allegations against Respondent: • Caliber Jet Charter, LLC (hereinafter "Caliber Jet") is the holder of

### Air Carrier CertificateNumber 7CJA702M. " CaliberJet is authorizedto conduct operations pursuantto 14 C.P.R. Part 135.

@ 

### On or about May 28, 2014, CaliberJet operated a Lear Jet 60 aircraft, identification number N929SR (hereinafter "the aircraft"), on a flight from White Plains, New Yorkto Scottsdale, Arizona (hereinafterthe "flight").

• At the time of the flight, Larry D. Henderson acted as pilot-in-command and Mohammed Jasim acted as second-in-command of the aircraft (hereinafter the "flight crewmembers").
• At the time ofthe flight, the aircraft was listed onthe operations specifications for Caliber Jet.
• During the flight there were at leasttwo passengers onboardthe aircraft.
• The above-referenced flight was arranged at the request ofBeamAviation.
• The above-referenced flight was documented as occurringpursuantto Part 91.

3 Pursuant to 14 C.F.R. § 13.2ll(e), five additional days were added to allow for service by mail. 

### 2

### • Notwithstanding the above, the flight was actually operatedpursuant to Part 135 of the Federal AviationRegulations for BeamAviation.
• Prior to the flight, Caliber Jet accepted $11,700 from Beam Aviation as payment for the flight.
e Caliber Jet did not ensure that the flight crewmembers assigned to the flight maintained continued qualifications in compliance with the Federal Aviation

.**B,~gu1ati_O!lS.** 

### . .............······-·... • Specifically, at the time ofthe flight, the flight crewmembers were not provided with at least 10 consecutive hours ofrest during the 24-hour period that precedes the planned completion time ofthe assignment as required pursuant to 14 C.F.R. 

### § 135.267(d).
• At the time of the above referenced flights, the flight crewmembers had approximately seven hours of consecutive rest during the 24-hour period that preceded the planned completiontime ofthe assign_TUent.

e 

### Further, Caliber Jet did not ensure that a flight crewmember assigned to the flight was properly trained and/or current for the type ofoperations he conducted and that his training was properly documented.
• Specifically, prior to the flight, on May 28, 2014, the second-in-command failed an Airmen Competency/Proficiency Check, conducted pursuant to 14 C.F.R. 

### §135.299.
• Prior to the flight, the flight creVvmembers were notified by a Federal Aviation Administration Aviation Safety Inspector about the second-in-command's unsuccessful Airmen Competency/Proficiency Check.
• Further, prior to the flight, Caliber Jet's Director ofOperations was notified by a Federal Aviation Administration Aviation Safety Inspector about the second-incommand's unsuccessful Airmen Competency/Proficiency Check.
• By reason ofall ofthe above, Caliber Jet used a flight crewmember for the flight when he had not passed a flight check required under Part 135 ofthe Federal AviationRegulations.
• Byreason ofall ofthe above, Caliber Jet operatedthe above-referenced flights in a careless or reckless manner so as to endangerthe life or property ofanother. 13. The Agency allegedthat Respondent violated the follov,ing regulations:
e Section 91.13(a), which states that no person may operate an aircraft in a careless or reckless manner so as to endangerthe life or property ofanother. 3

### • Section 135.95(b), which states no certificate holder may use the services ofany person as an airman unless the personperfonningthose services is qualified, under this chapter, for the operation for whichthe person is to be used.

If the pilot being checked is unable to demonstrate satisfactory performance to the personconducting the check, the certificate holder may not use the pilot, nor may the pilot serve, as a flight crewmember in operations under this part untilthe pilot has satisfactorily completedthe check. I. 

### The allegations in the Complaint should be deemed admitted. More than thirty days elapsed since the Complaint was delivered to Respondent's attorney. See Exhibit C. No response to the Complaint has been received. As Respondent is represented by counsel, the requirement to comply with the Rules of Practice "is strictly enforced." See FAA v. Playtor, FAA Order 90-0015 (March 19, 1990), affd, Playtor v. Federal Aviation Administration, 933 F.2d 1009 (6th Cir. 1991). The Department's Rules ofPractice, 14. C.F.R. 

### § 13.209(f), support the Agency's motion to have the allegations deemed admitted. The Department has long held that "[p]rocedural rules must be enforced in a non-arbitrary manner to ensure the integrity of the civil penalty process, even where this results in severe consequences." In 

### re Jim.'1W Lee Harkins, CP93AL0214 (1994). See also In the Matter of Panalpina, Inc., CP06S00029 (2006). II. Respondent violated the Federal Aviation Regulations alleged and the Agency is entitledto a decision on the uncontested facts. As Respondent failed to provide an answer to the Administrator's Complaint without a showing ofgood cause, there is no genuine issue ofmaterial fact and a decision should enter in

### favor ofthe Agency as a matter oflaw. See 14 C.F.R. 

## § 13.218(£)(5).4 

### "Amotion for decision under 14 C.F.R. § 13.218(£)(5) is comparable to a motion for summary judgment under Rule 56(c) ofthe Federal Rules ofCivil Procedure ("FRCP")." Inthe Matter ofWilliam A. Luker, Jr., 2010 WL 1989430 at 2 (D.O.T.) (2010)(citing Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317 (1986)("'n our view the plain language of Rule 56(c) mandates the entry of summary judgment, after adequate time for discovery and upon motion, against a party who fails to make a showing

### such a situation, there can be 'no genuine issue as to any material fact,' since a complete failure ofproof concerning an essential element ofthe nonmoving party's case necessarily renders all other facts immaterial." Id. at 322-23). The uncontested allegations demonstrate that Respondent violated the Federal Aviation Regulations referenced in the Complaint. Specifically, the aircraft required two crewmembers for operation. See Complaint at paragraph 4 and Exhibit D. On May 28, 2014, the second-incommand (hereinafter the "airman") failed his Airman Competency/Proficiency Check, conducted pursuant to 14 C.F.R. § 135.299. See Complaint at paragraph 16 and Exhibit E. The Federal Aviation Administration notified the airman, the pilot-in-command, and the Director of Operations for Respondent on said date about the results ofthe airman's check. See Complaint at paragraphs 17 and 18 and Exhibit F. Notwithstanding, Caliber Jet Charter used the airman as a required flight crewmember on a Part 135 flight that departed White Plains, New York to Scottsdale, Arizona on May 28, 2015 which carried at least two passengers. See Complaint at paragraphs 3, 7, and 10 and Exhibit G. Prior to the flight, Respondent collected $11,700 as payment for the flight5• 

### See paragraphs 8 and 11 and Exhibit H. The above referenced facts

4 A motion for decision may enter "if the pleadings, depositions, answers to interrogatories, admissions, matters that the administrative law judge has officially noticed, or evidence introduced during the hearing show that there is no genuine issue of material fact and that the party making the motion is entitled to a decision as a matter of law." 14 CoF.R. § 13.218 (fi (Si. 5 As the evidence demonstrates, Respondent charged and accepted payment for a planned Part 135 flight. See Exhibit H. The fact that Respondent instead used the payment as a credit towards a "future" flight does not take the flight out of the realm of Part 135. "The fact that [the passengers were] not charged for the flight does not remove the flight from Part 135. It was clearly in respondent's financial interest to operate the flight, and the expectation of future business is sufficient to render the flight one for compensation or hire." See Administrator v. John D. Towner, 5 N.T.S.B. 1348 {1986). "[I]ntangible benefits, such as the expectation of future economic

### As a result ofthe above, the facts support a finding of 14 C.F.R. 135.267(d). See supra at page 4. "Section 135.267(d) is designed to ensure that flight crews are alert and rested when they undertake flights for compensation or hire." Federal Aviation Administration v. Charter Airlines.

### By reason of all ofthe above, the Agency proved that Respondent violated the Federal Aviation Regulations alleged in the Complaint and a decision should enter in favor of the Agency as a matter oflaw. III. The Agency's sanction guidelines support a civil penal

## tv inthe amount of$17,600.00 against Respondent.

-- ------- -- ------------------ -- ------------------------------- 

### The Agency's guidelines for the computation of sanction is contained in the FAA Order No. 2150.3B (hereinafter the "Order"). Under the Order, Respondent is deemed a Group IV air carrier and operator. See FAA Order 2150.3B at B-3 6 

### See Exhibit J. Pursuant to Chapter 7, Paragraph 5(a) of the Order, "Sanction determinations are not accomplished through a strict mathematical formula; rather, sanction determinations result from a judgment of where a case lies along a spectrum of gravity." Additionally, the Order states that the "middle of each recommended sanction range would be for a single violation without aggravating or mitigating factors." Id. At B-2. In 

### the present matter, Respondent was notified directly by the Federal Aviation Administration that its second-in-command failed a proficiency check and that he was not qualified to serve inthe capacity ofa Part 135 crewmember. See Complaint at paragraphs 17-18 and Exhibit F. Notwithstanding, Respondent disregarded this notice and assigned the airman as a second-in-command on a Part 135 flight anyway. Further aggravatingthis issue, is the fact that Respondent's Director of Operations previously implored the FAA to get the pilot checks done in an expedited manner before the flight because he admitted that his company could not afford to have the aircraft grounded for Part 135 flights because it would putthem out ofbusiness. See Exhibit K. 

### "Ifa violationis deliberate or not inadvertent, a sanction at the upper end ofthe range or exceeding the range for that type ofviolation generally is appropriate. A deliberate violation generally warrants a sanctionthat is more severe than one that isjustnot inadvertent." See FAA Order 2150.3B at 7-S(b)(l). Respondent's actions were intentional and deliberate and therefore mustbe considered an aggravating factor for sanction consideration. See id.

6 Group IV is defined as \'[e]ach air carrier or commercial operator operating under part 135 with no more than 5 pilots and no more than 5 aircraft." It is the smallest classification for an air carrier or commercial operator in the Order. 

### 7

### The Orderrecommends a maximum civil penalty in the range of$4,400

- $11,000 for use of an unqualified crewmember. See id. at B-4 and B-15. Due to Respondent's deliberate and intentional assignment ofthe airman as second-in-command for a Part 135 flight, the maximum civilpenalty is warranted for this matter- $11,000.00. Respondent's use oftwo crewmembers inviolation ofthe flight and duty time regulations warrants a moderate sanction in the range of $2,200

- $4,399. See id. A civil penalty in the middle ofthis range would be $3,299.50 per airman. The total violation therefore for this issue, would be $6,599.00. When all amounts are added together, the total civil penalty sought by the Agency is $11,000.00 plus $6,600.007, 

### for a cumulativetotal of$17,600.00. This amount is consistent with the Order, withinthe Agency's guidelines, and shouldbe affirmed. WHEREFORE, for all ofthe above reasons, the Agency respectfully requests that: 1) the allegations in the Agency's Complaint be deemed admitted and 2) that summary judgment in favor ofthe Agency and imposing a civil penalty in the amount of $17,600.00 be ordered or in the alternative, that the hearing be limited to the issue ofsanctions.

### June 16,2014 This statement is based on my understanding that Beam Aviation is not under investigation, was not the party that contacted the FAA, and to the extent that I do not have personal information is based upon information and belief. On May 27, 2014, Beam Aviation booked an 

### $11 ,700 charter with CaliberJet. The chartered flight wastotake place at 

### 3 p.m. on May 28, 

## £QJ4,
**aml_}Y_a~fp_r_l!_LJ'ar6Dfl:ting_from_l:lf'l'!to** 

### ____ 

## SbCTfiefollowlng

**morn!ng;w!1-;;;;-calib~~Jet** requested confirmation ofpayment, Beam Aviation initiated a transfer of$11,700 to Caliber Jet forthe flight. Sometime between 

### 1:00 p.m. to 2:00p.m., Beam Aviation was informed by Caliber Jet that a delay was likely, and that the reason for the delay was that a check ride was taking longer than usual due to a "snag." I 

### then met the passengers at the Million Air FBO in White Plains to accompany them as they waited for more information. After no information was provided for more than an hour, I 

### asked Caliber Jet what happened on the check ride to cause such a delay and ifthere was any information being withheld. No information about the circumstances for the delay was provided. 

### I also asked ifwe couldjust do the trip the following morning, which was answered with "no." 

### 1 then informed Caliber Jet around 5 

### p.m. that we had lost patience and without additional information, the best course ofaction was to abort the trip. I 

### collected the luggage, and with the passengers in my car I 

### was happy to provide transportation home. Caliber Jet then implored Beam Aviation for more time and asserted thatthe flight was very likely to be possible in another hour 

### or two. I 

### asked the passengers whatthey would prefer to do and offered to take them to dinner nearby ifthey were inclined to wait. They decided to wait and accepted the offer. Roughly an hour later Caliber Jet provided an anticipated departure time of7 p.m. Around 5 p.m., in a telephone conversation with a flight dispatcher at Caliber, he suggested that they may dispatch this flight under Part 91. After hanging up, I immediately sent atext message that I "did not want whole thing camped you have no reason to repo." My fear was that this flight was booked as a Part 135 and that ifthey were thinking about not charging for the night, they would have no incentive to reposition the flight. The aircraft landed at HPN, the passengers boarded and depmied 7:20p.m. The following day, May 29th, the dispatcher confirmed that Caliber was treating the flight as a Part 91 flight. l asked for BeamAviation's payment to be returned and stated clearly that Beam Aviation had not received nor deposited funds for the flight. On June 2nd, 

### the dispatcher sent the first ofmany texts saying that Caliber executives were investigating the trip and that this was "over his head". That day the dispatcher confirmed what I had been saying-- that ifthis flight was a Part 91 flight the customer could not be charged. Between May 29'h and June 6th, I made over a dozen attempts by telephone, text and email to communicate with Caliber. When they finally took my 

### call! was told that all they would do is to

### give Beam a credit toward future flights. This is why I hired counsel: to seek a return ofthis payment, and I hired on June 11, 2014, priorto the first call with the FAA. On June 1

### O'h I received an email from Michael Dean ofCaliber who stated "I wanted to send you an email regarding your prepayment in the amount of$11,700 for atrip that ended up cancelling back in May. Caliber Jet will keep these funds on deposit for afuture trip for your company Beam Aviation. These funds will not expire and may be used at any time for atrip with one of ourfleet aircraft."

DIGEST 

### Mr. Garner called to make an urgent request for 14 CFR 135 checks for Hoharruned Jasim and 

# I Larry 

### D. Henderson. He said both pilots' currency would lapse under 14 CFR 135 if they did not get their checks by the end of the month. He said they needed this crew for the Lear-60, and his company could not afford to have the Lear 60 down for 14 CFR 135, it would put them out of 'qusiness. He said if I could find an Inspector willing to conduct -:=he checks on short notice, Caliber Jet Hould 

### fly the airplane and crew to the location of the Inspector.


### * Subsequent calls through dates approximately one week after this call were made to coordinate the checks with FAA Inspector Wilkins and Mr. Garner. Inspector Wilkins conducted the checks in Farmingdale, NY on May 28, 2014.
