Order 74-9-1


                         UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
                         CIVIL AERONAUTICS BOARD
                            WASHINGTON, D. C.

                   Adopted by the Civil Aeronautics Board
                     at its office in Washington, D.C.          A
                       on the 3rd day of September, 1974



Application of

     HUGHES AIRWEST                                   Docket 26638

for deletion of Sun Valley-Hailey-Ketchum
and Burley-Rupert, Idaho.



                            ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

     By application filed April 22, 1974, Hughes Airwest requests
amendment of its certificate of public convenience and necessity for
route 76 so as to delete therefrom~the points Sun Valley-Hailey-Ketchum
(Sun Valley) and Burley-Rupert, Idaho.  The carrier asks that the Board
proceed by wayof  an order to show cause or, alternatively, set the
matter for an expedited hearing. I

     In support of its request for deletion, the carrier asserts that
neither airport is adequate for F-27 aircraft--the smallest equipment
type operated by Airwest at the time its application was filed; 2/


1/ Airwest has been suspended  at both points for the past three and
one-half years, subject to a condition requiring the continuation of
existing regularly-scheduled commuter carrier services.  See Orders
69-12-94 (December 23, 1969), 73-1-9 (January 3, 1973), and 73-2-87
(February 23, 1973).  The condition has been recently lifted by the
Board, pending final decision on -this deletion application, Order 74-7-53
(July 12,.1974).  The Board last year also denied an Airwest application
seeking, through show cause procedures, the hyphenation of Sun Valley
and Burley-Rupert with Twin Falls, Idaho, Order 73-6-115 (June 28, 1973).
2/ The carrier has now completed plans to dispose of its remaining F-27
aircraft, in favor of an all DC-9 fleet.  Nonetheless, as we have
recently observed, the carrier's lack of propjet equipment suitable
for service at small communities will not be dispositive of any appli-
cation to be relieved of its certificate obligations.  See Order 74-8-45,
dated August 12, 1974.
