Consent Order- Erratum

Violations of 49 USC 41101 and 41712, and 14 CFR 201 and 298

Consent Order 2002-7-30 is being modified to reflect properly that an air taxi performing more than four round trips a week between the same two points according to a published schedule must be found fit either as a commuter or certificated air carrier, and that Vision Air’s pending application is for certificated authority.
