MOTION OF AERODYNAMICS INCORPORATED

FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE UPDATED FITNESS INFORMA TION

Pursuant to 14 CFR § 204.7 and Air Carrier Fitness Division practice, a carrier

whose DOT certificate authority has become dormant is ordinarily required to file

continuing fitness information at least 45 days prior to expiration of the one

- year

dorm ancy period stated in the regulation . Aerodynamics Incorporated (ADI)

, to the

extent necessary , hereby requests an extension of time for submission of its continuing

fitness information . In support of this motion , ADI states as follows.

ADI’s certificat es of public convenience and necessity for interstate and foreign

charter air transportation of persons, property and mail were issued by O rder 2003

- 9

- 29.

ADI operated a large air craft under this authority until late 2010, and continued operating

small ai rcraft (as defined in the Department’s regulations) under its certificate authority

until October 15, 2012, when ADI temporarily ceased air transportation operations.

In late July 2013, ADI resumed air transportation operations with 50

- passenger

small a ircraft pursuant to reissued FAA authority and an approved DOT Part 298 air taxiregi stration. On August 30, 2013, more than 45 days prior to expiration of the on e

- year

period referenced above, ADI submitted a substantial quantity of continuing fitness

in formation to the Department’s A ir C arrier F itness D ivision. Th e update process was
completed (subject to any DOT request for additional information) with submission to the

Fitness Division of additional and further

- updated information on February 28, 2014

.

In view of these circumstances, an extension of time to the extent necessary for

acceptance of the final installment of ADI’s continuing fitness information is fully justified.

Most of ADI’s information was included in its initial submission on Augus t 30, 2013, within

the customary time frame

. Were the Department to decline to provide an extension for

the later filing, ADI would be forced to apply for entirely new certificate authority

. Requiring such an application would be contrary to the public i nterest since (i ) ADI is an

operating air carrier, (ii ) it would waste the Department’s and ADI’s valuable resources to

require the carrier to repeat a process previously completed, and ( iii) such action would

delay the availability of ADI’s pro

- competitiv e certificated service

, to the public detriment.

Favorable action on this request would be additionally in the public inter est in that

it would help enable ADI to inaugurate its proposed new service in a timely fashion. That

service is described in Exh ibit B to ADI’s N otice of I ntent to Resume C ertificated A ir Carrier

O perations in this docket. D aily service involv ing a route not currently served , as ADI

proposes, is very much in the public interest.

Wherefore, ADI requests that its motion for extens ion of time to file updated

fitness information be granted

. Respectfully submitted,
