TO THE FAA'S MOTION TO DENY APPEALS 

The Federal Aviation Administration, by and through counsel, hereby files its answer to Trans North 

Aviation's Reply and states in support thereof as follows. 

1. In its Reply Trans North alleges that it did not receive or sign for a Domestic Return Receipt and 

provides an affidavit by Ms. Beyersdorf to that effect (See Exhibit A.} 

2. The Agency respectfully provides a copy of a Return Receipt signed by Ms. Beyersdorf and 

returned to the Agency received on February 4, 2013 (See Exhibit B). 

3. Ms. Beyersdorf's Affidavit is clearly in error. 

4. Trans North states that this is the person that customarily receives mail on behalf of Trans 

North. 

5. In accordance with 14 C.F.R. Section 13.211(h} Presumption of Service, Service shall be 

presumed where a party or a person who customarily receives mail, or receives it in the ordinary 

course of business, at either the person's residence or the person's principal place of business, 

acknowledges receipt of the document. 
WHEREFORE, The Federal Aviation Administration again respectfully requests that the Late 

Filed Trans North Aviation's Request for Hearing be Denied.
