EXPEDITED ACTION REQUESTED

MOTION OF CENTURION AIR CARGO, INC.

FOR A TEMPORARY DORMANCY WAIVER

Centurion Air Cargo, Inc. (“Centurion”) respectfully requests a waiver

of the 90

- day dormancy condition imposed on the above

- captioned U.S.

-

Mexico exemption authority granted by Notice of Action Taken dated May 23,

2013 (the “Notice”) in the above

- captioned docket. Centurion requests that

the dormancy condition be waived for an additional 90 days ( that is, through

November 19, 2013 ). It therefore is polling U.S. carriers served with this

motion and will report the results to the Department . In support of this

motion, Centurion states as follows:

1. In the Notice the Department granted Centurion authority to

operate all

- cargo service in four US

- Mexico city

- pairs: Los Angeles

- Mexico

City, Miami

- Mexico City, Los Angeles

- Guadalajara, and Miami

- Guadal ajara.- 2

- Centurion

Motion

The Notice refer s to the dormancy notice requirements set forth in condition

7 of Appendix A of Order 88

- 10

- 2, which requires that service pursuant to

new U.S.

- Mexico authority be instituted no later than 90 days after it is

authorized

.

2

. Centu rion moved promptly to request scheduled operating authority

from the Mexican Direccion Genera l de Aeronautica Civil (DGAC) and is

currently engaged in that process. Since an initial contact in early July,

Centurion and its representative in Mexico have b een refining with DGAC,

through correspondence and a meeting, the extensive documentation

req uired for Centurion to receive its Mexican operating authority.

Centurion’s best estimate is that it will take an additional 45 to 60 days to

have in place all th e approvals it needs to begin service. At that time,

Centurion intends to begin MD

- 11 operations with multiple, weekly

scheduled rotations serving the U.S.

- Mexico city

- pairs described in its

exemption authority.

3. Centurion’s request for a waiver is in the public interest because

Centurion remains committed to introducing all

- cargo service in the Los

Angeles/Miami

- Mexico City/Guadalajara markets and has acted diligently to

obtain the necessary Mexican authority.- 3

- Centurion

Motion

WHEREFORE, Centurion Air Cargo, Inc. respectfully requests that

the Department grant it a waiver , through November 19, 2013, of the

dormancy requirement imposed by the Notice and such other relief as may be

necessary or proper.

Respectfully submitted,
