    Petitioner: Wiggins Airways, Inc.
    Section of 14 CFR Affected: Sec.  135.243(c)(2).
    Description of Relief Sought: Petitioner Wiggins Airways, Inc. 
seeks relief from the pilot experience requirements of 14 CFR

Caravans (C-208) operations with a maximum certificated takeoff weight

flight time as a pilot to include at least 500 hours in airplanes.
