OST-96-1372 / Posted November 21, 1996

Notice of Action

We approved that part of ABSA’s request to delete the requirement that its operations be conducted under wet lease from a duly authorized and properly supervised US or foreign carrier and, thereby, authorized the carrier to conduct operations with its own aircraft and crew. Dismissed ABSA’s request to the extent that it requested that the prior approval conditions of its authority be deleted. Further, ABSA’s Department authority is subject to the terms, limitations and conditions of the 1995 US-Brazil Air Transport Agreement and the attached standard exemption conditions.
