## 40109 (U.S.-Europe) Docket DOT-OST-2015-

APPLICATION OF ABELAG AVIATION NV FOR A FOREIGN AIR CARRIER PERMIT AND EXEMPTION AUTHORITY 

## Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 

## 41301 and Parts 211 and 302 of the Aviation Economic Regulations, Abelag Aviation NV ("Abelag") hereby applies for a foreign air carrier permit to the full extent authorized by the Air Transport Agreement Between the United States and the European Community and the Member States of the European Community (hereinafter the "US-EC Agreement") to enable it to engage in:
1. 

## foreign charter air transportation ofpersons and property from any point or points behind any Member State of the European Union via any point or points in any Member State and via intermediate points to any point or points in the United States and beyond;
11. 

## foreign charter air transportation of persons and property between any point or points in the United States and any point or points in any member ofthe European Common Aviation Area;
111. 

## other charters pursuant to the prior approval requirements set forth in Part 212 of the Department's Economic Regulations; and 1v. transportation authorized by any additional route rights made available to European Community carriers in the future.

## Abelag further requests exemption authority under 49 U.S.C. § 40109 to the extent necessary to enable it to provide the services described above pending issuance of a foreign air carrier permit and such additional or other relief as the Department may deem necessary or appropriate. Abelag requests that the authority described above be issued expeditiously and that the Department process this application pursuant to the streamlined regulatory procedures for licensing U.S. and foreign air carriers set forth in the Notice dated August 23, 2005 (Docket OST-2005-22228), and issue a single order (1) granting the requested exemption authority for a two-year period or until the requested permit authority becomes effective, whichever
occurs first, and (2) approving the corresponding foreign air carrier permit under the showcause procedures described in the August 23, 2005 Notice. Abelag further requests the Department process this application pursuant to the streamlined regulatory procedures for licensing European Union air carriers pursuant to the provisions of the U.S.-EU Reciprocal Recognition Procedures set forth in the Department's notice dated February 19, 2009. In support ofthis application, Abelag states as follows: 1. The full name and address ofthe applicant is: Abelag Aviation NV Kortrijkstraat 317 B8560 Wevelgem Belgium The applicant is a corporation organized under the laws ofBelgium. 2. The name and official address of the government mr transport authority having regulatoryjurisdiction over Abelag is:



## 2

## Belgian Civil Aviation Authority Vooruitgangstraat 56 B1210 Brussels Belgium 3. Abelag holds authority to operate the aircraft listed in its Air Operator Certificate B-3002, which was issued by the Civil Aviation Authority and is attached as Exhibit 1. 4. Since March 30, 2008, a1r transportation between the United States and Belgium is governed by the Air Transport Agreement Between the United States and the European Community and the Member States ofthe European Community (signed April 30, 2007). Abelag is requesting authority to the full extent provided by the US-EC Agreement and automatic application of additional rights made available to European Community carriers in the future. 5. Abelag requests this authority to provide ad hoc, on demand charter operations between points outside the United States and points in the United States. These services will be operated with business jet aircraft. Abelag has held a Part 375 Special Authorization issued by the Department since February 17, 2009. 6. Abelag meets the Department's requirements for msurance. Attached as Exhibit 2 are OST Forms 6411. 7. Abelag is applying to the Department for authority to operate aircraft designed to have a maximum passenger capacity of not more than 60 seats or a maximum payload capacity of not more than 18,000 pounds. Pursuant to Order 98-1-31 issued February 3, 1998, Abelag is exempt from the prov1s10ns of 49 U.S.C. § 41313, which requires 3

## submission of an Aviation Disaster Family Assistance Plan. Further, pursuant to Part 243.3 of the Aviation Economic regulations, Abelag is not required to collect passenger manifest information. 8. A partial waiver of the liability limitations of the Warsaw Convention (OST Form 4523) is attached as Exhibit 3. 9. Abelag anticipates that grant of the requested authority will not result in aircraft fuel consumption exceeding 10 million gallons. Accordingly, grant ofthe requested foreign air carrier permit and exemption authority would not constitute a major regulatory action under the Energy and Conservation Act of 1975, as defined in Section 313.4 of the Aviation Economic regulations. 10. The verification required by § 211.11 ofthe Aviation Economic regulations is attached as Exhibit 4.

WHEREFORE, Abelag Aviation NV submits that grant ofthis application would be consistent with the public interest and requests that the Department issue a foreign air carrier permit and exemption authority to enable Abelag to engage in: 1. 

## foreign charter air transportation of persons and property from any point or points behind any Member State of the European Union via any point or points in any Member State and via intermediate points to any point or points in the United States and beyond; ii. foreign charter air transportation ofpersons and property between any point or points in the United States and any point or points in any member of the European Common Aviation Area;
4111. 

## other charters pursuant to the prior approval requirements set forth in Part 212 ofthe Department's Economic Regulations; and 1v. transportation authorized by any additional route rights made available to European Community carriers in the future.
