                    Issued by the Department of Transportation
                          on the 4th day of June, 1986


 Ninety-Day Notice of                                         ERVED      U  10 1986

      RIO AM   YS, INC.                       Docket 43707

 under section 419(a)(3)(A)
 of the Federal Aviation Act, as :
 amended, to suspend service at   :
 Temple, Texas


                        ORDER EXTENDING SERVICE OBLIGATION

 on January 8, 1986, Rio Airways, Inc., filed a 90-day notice to terminate its
 service at Temple, Texas. Rio is the only carrier serving Temple.    It was
 selected by Order 85-8-70 to provide essential air service to Temple consisting
 of two weekday and two weekend nonstop round trips in the Dallas/Ft. Worth
 market with 19-seat Beech 1900 aircraft for a two-year period, with a first
 year subsidy of $173,068 and a second year subsidy of $154,952. The rate term
 began on October 13, 1985.

 By Order 86-1-44, the Department prohibited Rio from suspending service at
 Temple and instituted a replacement case by requesting proposals. i/   No
 proposals were filed in response to Order 86-1-44. By Order 86-4-5, the
 Department again sought essential air service proposals for Temple and also
 requested proposals for Brownwood and Paris, Texas. The latter two points are
 presently without air service since Eagle Commuter Airlines suspended
 operations as a result of the Federal Aviation Administration revocation of the
 carrier's operating certificate. Four carriers submitted proposals, with
 subsidy requests, in response to Order 86-4-5. One applicant, Air Texas,
 subsequently withdrew its proposal. We are in the process of holding rate
 conferences with the applicants.

 Subsequent to its filing notice, Rio also requested approval to meet the
 essential air service requirements of Temple while the essential air service
 replacement case is being processed by providing one-stp service to Dallas/
 Ft. Ibrth via Waco, without subsidy, rather than nonstop service as it had been
 selected to operate. The essential air service determination for Temple
 requires nonstop service. By Order 86-4-88, the Department granted Rio an
 exemption to meet Temple's essential air service requirement by providing
 one-stop service via Waco until replacement service is inaugurated.





 1/ Order 86-1-44 directed Rio to maintain essential air service at Temple for
a 30-day period after the end of its 90-day notice period, through May 8,
1986. By Order 86-5-23, we extended this service obligation for an additional
30-day period, through June 7, 1986.
