RESPONSE TO SHOW CAUSE ORDER 2015-1-16 

Aerodynamics Incorporated ("ADI") appreciates the opportunity to respond to 

Show Cause Order 2015-1-16. The Show Cause Order raised concerns about the 

qualifications of Scott Beale, ADI's former CEO, President, and Chairman, and his 

continued management and ownership of ADI. ADI carefully considered the 

Department's Show Cause Order and immediately undertook decisive actions to directly 

and meaningfully address the Department's concerns: 

First, Mr. Beale has resigned as CEO, President, and Chairman of the Board of 

ADI and its parent companies, ADI Holdings Company, Inc. ("ADI Holdings"), and 

Aviation Capital Partners, LLC ("Aviation Capital Partners"). Effective January 26, 2015, 

he no longer holds any management, employee, board, consultant or sales agent 

position with the Companies. 1 

Collectively, ADI, ADI Holdings, and Aviation Capital Partners are "the Companies". 

\\DC OG5480/000002 6403732 v4 1 
Second, Darrell Richardson, a well-known airline industry veteran, has been 

appointed as the new CEO, President, and Chairman of the Boards of the Companies, 

effective January 26, 2015. 

Third, three new board members were appointed to the Boards of the 

Companies, effective January 26, 2015, in addition to Mr. Richardson. 

Fourth, Mr. Beale has committed to sell his 100% interest in the Companies and 

has already begun the process of selling his interests. 

As a result of these actions, ADI respectfully requests that the Department 

immediately issue an Order: 

a. withdrawing the Show Cause Order and the threat to revoke ADI's 

interstate and foreign charter passenger air transportation certificates; 

b. confirming that, based on the management and board member 

changes already accomplished, ADI currently meets the Department's 

managerial and compliance disposition requirements; 

c. making clear that the Show Cause Order was not based in any way on 

concerns about the safety of ADI's operations; 

d. providing 30 days for Mr. Beale to place his shares in the Companies 

into a voting trust acceptable to the Department; 

e. providing 120 days for the completion of the sale of the Companies; 

and 

f. indicating the Department's willingness to consider processing ADI's 

pending application for scheduled interstate air transportation 

certificate authority, subject to the submission of updated fitness 

information. 

\\DC· 065480/000002 6403732 v4 2 
Because the Show Cause Order has raised concerns in the marketplace and among 

ADI's customer base, ADI requests that the Department act immediately on this 

request. 

I. ADI Has Taken Swift and Decisive Actions To Address The Department's 

Concerns. 

ADI has acted swiftly and decisively to address the concerns relating to ADI's 

ownership and management discussed in the Show Cause Order. As detailed below 

and in the attached exhibits, ADI and its holding companies now have new Boards of 

Directors and a new Chairman/CEO/President with substantial aviation experience. In 

addition, the process for an orderly sale and disposition of Mr. Beale's ownership stake 

in the Companies to an independent third party(ies) has already begun, as has the 

process for establishing a voting trust for Mr. Beale's stock in the Companies. The 

following describes these actions: 

Mr. Scott Beale. Mr. Beale has removed himself from the management, 

governance, employment and operations of the Companies. On January 26, 2015, he 

resigned as the President, CEO, Chairman of the Board, board member and employee 

of ADI, ADI Holdings, and Aviation Capital Partners, with immediate effect. Exhibit 1. 

Mr. Beale no longer has any involvement in the governance or management of the 

Companies. He does not hold any management, employee, sales agent, consultant or 

board position with the Companies. See Beale Declaration in Exhibit 2. Mr. Beale - as 

the sole shareholder of the ultimate holding company of ADI 2 - has committed to, and 

has already begun the process of, selling the Companies to one or more independent 

ADI is wholly owned by ADI Holdings Company, Inc., which in turn is owned 100% by Aviation Capital 

Partners LLC. Aviation Capital Partners LLC is 100% owned by Scott Beale . 

. -DC· OGo !801000002 · G4037:l2 v4 3 
third parties as soon as reasonably practicable. See Beale Declaration in Exhibit 2. In 

addition, pending the sale of the Companies, Mr. Beale has agreed to place his 

ownership interests in the Companies in a voting trust acceptable to the Department. 

See Beale Declaration in Exhibit 2. 

New President, CEO, and Chairman of the Board. On January 26, 2015, F. 

Darrell Richardson was appointed President, CEO, and Chairman of the Board of each 

of the Companies. Exhibit 3. Mr. Richardson has more than 40 years of experience in 

the aviation industry, including as Chief Operating Officer of Mesaba Airlines, Executive 

Vice President/Chief Operating Officer of Piedmont Hawthorne Aviation, President and 

CEO of Pace Airlines, and the CEO of Silver Airways. His resume and key personnel 

questionnaire responses are attached as Exhibit 5. He is well known by the 

Department, and airlines with which he was employed in senior executive positions 

have been found fit, willing and able by the Department. See DOT Order 2011-4-28 

(finding VPAA fit, willing, and able to conduct scheduled passenger operations as a 

commuter air carrier and transferring Gulfstream International's commuter air carrier 

authorization to VPAA; Mr. Richardson's credentials are discussed in the review of 

management as New GIA's Chief Restructuring Officer). 3 

New Boards of Directors of AD/ and its Holding Companies. On January 

26, 2015, Mickey Bowman, Kenneth Swieter, and Donald Greeson were appointed to 

the Boards of each of the Companies, joining Mr. Richardson. Exhibit 4. Each of these 

individuals has substantial experience in aviation. 

VPAA later became Silver Airways. See DOT Order 2011-11-32. 

\\DC · OG51H0/000002 · G·l037:!2 v4 4 
Mr. Bowman became ADI's Vice President of Airline Services in January 

2015. He has held senior management positions at Chautauqua Airlines, 

Mesa Air Group, Gulfstream International Airlines, and Silver Airways. 

Mr. Swieter has been a senior manager at various aviation and travel 

companies, including Ameristar Fuels Corp., Picus International, Patriot 

Airways, iJet Charters, TrendRight Travel, and GenX Rewards. 

Mr. Greeson began his career as a ramp agent/ramp supervisor and a 

senior air transport analyst at the Civil Aeronautics Board. He has been a 

senior manager and consultant in the aviation industry for Aviation 

Associates, Airline Capital & Consulting Service, lnterFiight Global Corp., 

and vonJet Aviation Partners. 

Resumes and key personnel questionnaire responses from each of Messrs. Bowman, 

Swieter, and Greeson are attached as Exhibits 6, z, and§, respectively. 4 

Mr. Robert Ward. Although not mentioned as a concern in the Show Cause 

Order, ADI takes this opportunity to clarify and update Robert Ward's status vis-a-vis 

the Companies. He is no longer a board member of ADI, ADI Holdings or Aviation 

Capital Partners. He does not have any ownership interest in any of the Companies, 

nor is he involved in the governance or management of the Companies. He does not 

hold any management, employee, consultant, sales agent or board position with the 

Companies. See Ward Declaration in Exhibit 9. 

II. The Department Should Immediately Issue an Order Withdrawing the Show 

Cause Order. 

ADI has addressed all of the Department's issues with regard to ADI's 

management and compliance disposition, except the ownership (sale) of the 

4 There is a small gap in Mr. Bowman's work history in late 2013 and early 2014 which was the result of a 

non-compete provision after leaving Silver Airways. During that period, Mr. Bowman worked in real estate. 

\DC OG!\!80/000002 · G-!03732 v·1 5 
Companies, which is in the process of being addressed. Mr. Beale has stated in his 

Declaration that he is committed to the orderly sale of the Companies. He believes that 

can be accomplished within 120 days. In the meantime, Mr. Beale will place his 

ownership interests in the Companies in a voting trust acceptable to the Department. 

In light of these actions, the Department should promptly issue an Order 

withdrawing the Show Cause Order (and the threat to revoke ADI's interstate and 

foreign charter passenger air transportation certificates) and confirming that ADI 

satisfies the Department's managerial and compliance disposition fitness requirements. 

The Order should also make clear that its tentative determinations were not based in 

any way on concerns about the safety of ADI's operations. Indeed, ADI, which currently 

has over 60 employees and many satisfied customers, has an outstanding safety and 

operational record during its 55 years of existence; it has served the industry for this 

entire period without an accident; and it holds the ARG/US Platinum rating. 

The Order should provide reasonable time for Mr. Beale (i) to find a trustee and 

establish a voting trust acceptable to the Department (30 days), and (ii) to complete the 

orderly sale of the Companies (120 days). 

In addition, the Order should also indicate the Department's willingness to 

continue processing ADI's application for scheduled authority, subject to the submission 

of updated fitness information, to enable it to proceed with its scheduled service plans. 

ADI is anxious to begin, and the City of Youngstown is anxious to receive, first-time 

nonstop service to a major hub. ADI intends to vigorously prosecute its application for 

scheduled authority and will submit any updated fitness information requested by the 

Department. 

\\DC - OG5-1801000002 G-10:3732 v-1 6 
Importantly, given the concerns raised by ADI's customer base and the 

marketplace in light of the Show Cause Order, ADI respectfully requests that the 

Department issue such an Order immediately. 

Ill. Conclusion. 

In light of the substantial changes in management of the Companies and the 

commitment of the owner to sell the Companies and place his interests into a voting 

trust pending sale, ADI respectfully submits that there is no basis for the Show Cause 

Order and it should be promptly withdrawn.
