Hamilton, FAR 135 Chief Inspector, 4111 Bridgeway Avenue, Columbus, Ohio, 43219-1882 petitions to extend exemption No. 8662D from 14 CFR §91.203 (a), 14 CFR §91.203 (b), and 14 CFR 

### § 47.49. The existing exemption grants relief to permit temporary operation ofthe Company's U.S. registered aircraft in domestic operations withoutthe registration or airworthiness certificates on board. The exemption is ·scheduled to·expire on November 30, 2015. An exemption similar to this petition has been granted, amended, and extended, for air carriers operating within the 48 contiguous United States and adhering to the procedures and policies described within the ·exemption (Ref. Grants of Exemption No. 5318 through 53181). Accordingly, NetJets Aviation petitions to extend exemption No. 8662D to permit temporary operation of its U.S. registered aircraft in domestic operations without the certificate of registration, airworthiness, or both on board until such time as the lost, stolen, ormutilated certificate(s) can be replaced. A copy of exemption No. -8662D has been attached to better document the request for extension.

### This exemption would be in the public interest since delays or cancellations resulting from loss of certificates have been numerous in the past, and said exemption has alleviated, if not eliminated, these occurrences. An equivalent level of safety is maintained since a method of documentation is found in the Grant of Exemption No. 8662, which has been in place without negative impact for the past 9-1/2 years. Should anyone have questions or comments, I can be reached at the address, phone number, or e-mail address listed below. Thank you for your consideration ofthis petition.

ExemptionNo. 8662D Regulatory DocketNo. FAA-2005-22733

This letter is to informyouthat we have granted yourpetitionto extend ExemptionNo. 8662, as amended. It explains the basis for our decision and describes its effect. TheBasis for OurDecision By letter dated June 13, 2013, youpetitionedthe Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on behalfofNetJets Aviation, Inc. (NetJets), for an extension ofExemptionNo. 8662, as amended. That exemption from§§ 91.203(a) and (b) and 47.49 ofTitle 14, Code ofFederal Regulations (14 CFR) allows NetJets to temporarily operate U.S.-registered aircraft in domestic operations withoutthe registration or airworthiness certificates onboard. In your petition, you indicate that there has been no change in the conditions and reasons relative to public interest and safety that were the basis for granting the original exemption. The FAAhas determined that good cause exists for not publishing a summary ofthe petition in the Federal Registerbecause the requested extension ofthe exemption would not set a precedent, and any delay in acting onthispetition would be detrimental to NetJets.
