 Exemption No. 9882A 

 Regulatory Docket No. FAA-2009-0333 

Mr. Brandon J. Kearns 

Director of Operations 

Jet Select, LLC 

4130 E. Fifth Avenue 

Columbus, OH 43219 

Dear Mr. Kearns: 

This letter is to inform you that we have granted your petition to extend Exemption No. 9882. 

It explains the basis for our decision and describes its effect. 

The Basis for Our Decision 

By letter dated February 4, 2011, you petitioned the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) 

on behalf of Jet Select, LLC (Jet Select) for an extension of Exemption No. 9882. That 

exemption from § 61.3(a) and (c) of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) allows 

Jet Select to issue written confirmation of an FAA-issued crewmember certificate to a flight 

crewmember employed by that air carrier based on information in the air carrier’s approved 

record system. 

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 FAA has determined that good cause exists for not publishing a summary of the petition 

in the Federal Register because the requested extension of the exemption would not set a 

precedent, and any delay in acting on this petition would be detrimental to Jet Select.

Our Decision 

The FAA has determined that the justification for the issuance of Exemption No. 9882 

remains valid with respect to this exemption and is in the public interest. Therefore, under the 

authority provided by 49 U.S.C. 40113 and 44701, which the FAA Administrator has 

delegated to me, I grant your petition, subject to the conditions and limitations listed below. 

Conditions and Limitations 

1. Before conducting operations under this exemption, Jet Select must develop, submit 

to, and have approved by its FAA principal operations inspector (POI) a plan outlining 

the procedures it expects to employ in issuing a temporary confirmation document to 

pilot flight crewmembers who do not have in their personal possession the airman or 

medical certificate required under the regulations for a particular flight. 

2. Jet Select’s procedures, as specified in Condition No. 1, must include a method to 

ensure positive identification of the pilot flight crewmember when the pilot flight 

crewmember no longer has any identification. 

3. Each pilot flight crewmember who operates a flight under this exemption must comply 

with § 61.29(c) and ensure a request for a facsimile from the FAA confirming the 

applicable certificate is made within 72 hours of the initiation of any flight conducted 

under this exemption. Jet Select is authorized to make this application to the FAA on 

behalf of the pilot flight crewmember. The pilot flight crewmember must provide a 

copy of the facsimile to Jet Select within 24 hours of the receipt of that facsimile. 

4. Jet Select confirmation document must include the written words “Issued under the 

authority of Exemption No. 9882.” 

5. The privileges of this exemption may be exercised only when the affected pilot flight 

crewmember operates totally within the District of Columbia and the contiguous 

United States. The privileges of this exemption may not be exercised in Alaska or 

Hawaii.

The Effect of Our Decision 

Our decision extends the termination date of Exemption No. 9882 to June 30, 2013 unless 

sooner superseded or rescinded. 

Sincerely, 

/s/ 

Raymond Towles 

Acting Director, Flight Standards
