1989 - November DOT Ord. & Dec. [1] (November, 1989)

handle is hein.usfed/dotod0405 and id is 1 raw text is: ,Z 4 Order 89-11-1 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY WASHINGTON, D.C. SERED NOV 1 1989 Issued by the Department of Transportation on the 1st day of November, 1989 In the matter of the cancellation of air carrier certificates issued to THE FLYING TIGER LINE INC. : Dockets 33712 and 40208 under sections 401 and 418 of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 ORDER CANCELLING CERTIFICATES The Flying Tiger Line Inc. (FTL) currently holds a section 401 certificate to engage in interstate and overseas air trans- portation of persons and property as well as a section 418 domestic all-cargo certificate. 1/ In early 1989, Federal Express Corporation purchased FTL and, on or about August 5, 1989, all of the operations of FTL were merged into Federal Express. Inasmuch as the authority contained in the FTL certificates is duplicative of authority already held by Federal Express, on September 8, 1989, we wrote Federal Express and requested that it advise us if it objected to the cancellation of the FTL certifi- cates. By letter dated October 6, 1989, Federal Express advised the Department that it did not object to cancellation of the FTL certificates as long as such cancellation did not interfere with Federal Express' arrangements with the FAA which allows the carrier to use the Operating Specifications previously issued to FTL. 2/ .1/ See Orders 80-9-89, adopted by the Civil Aeronautics Board on September 15, 1980, and 81-12-131, adopted by the Civil Aeronautics Board on December 22, 1981. 2/ According to Federal Express, FTL's FAA Operations Specifications have been preserved essentially intact as additions to those currently issued by the FAA to Federal Express. It is expected that these Operations Specifications will continue in effect during a transition period scheduled to end before January 1, 1990. At that time, Federal Express expects to be issued a single set of Operations Specifications by the FAA. We have contacted the FAA and determined that the cancellation of FTL's domestic certificates would not impact its arrangement with the FAA as long as Federal Express itself held appropriate Department authority. Moreover, we note that FTL has surrendered its Air Carrier Operating Certificate to the FAA.
