Concerning the gap in the resume of Mr. Ruben Torres between the period of September 

1994 and February 1997, he did not worked within this period since he was in a sick leave. 

Attached is the medical certification dated May 1,2001 that release him to work since 1996. 

Therefore, his resume will not change in the Employment Experience area. However, 

notice in the amended resume that the Education area has changed because Mr. Ruben 

Torres obtained his FAA Air Transport Pilot Certification in October, 2010. The amended 

resume includes copy of the ATP certification. 

In regards to the FAA investigation as of December 1st, 2010 , Air Flamenco has not received 

additional communication, regarding the scope of the air carrier operating authority. 

The content of this application and the attached exhibit (s) are true and correct to the best of my 

knowledge and belief. Pursuant to the Title 18 United States Code Section 1001, I Francisco 

Torres, in my individual capacity and as the authorized representative of the applicant, have not 

in any manner knowingly and willfully falsified, concealed or failed to disclose any material fact 

or made any false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or knowingly used any documents which 

contain such statements in connection with the preparation, filing or prosecution of the 

application. I understand that an individual who is found to have violated the provisions of 18 

U.S.C. Section 1001 shall be fined or imprisoned not more than five years, or both. 

We at Air Flamenco appreciate the diligence that the Department of Transportation particularly 

the Air Carrier Fitness Division is taking to review our Application for Commuter Air Carrier 

Authority. Please do not hesitate to contact us via email at airflamenco@yahoo.com or (787) 

405-1592 if additional information is required. 

Best regards, 

F rancisco Torres
