The TEB FSDO, as well as all FSDO's nationwide, is not accepting any new submissions or processing or working on any existing or previously submitted requests. At this time they are only conducting Safety Surveillance which is the examination of existing aircraft already on certificate. They are conducting audits of all documentation and an examination of the aircraft. No specific date has been give when they will get back to normal. The say it will happen only when they are caught up with all of the safety surveillance. This surveillance is not limited to Part 135 aircraft, but Part 121 and Part 125 aircraft as well. I will let you know as soon as the paperwork is submitted. Best regards Mike Jet Aviation Flight Services, Inc. Michael Volpe Vice President Client Relations 112 Charles A.

Once the paperwork is submitted I will have a much better idea on when the aircraft will be on Certificate. Nothing I will let you hold me to, because it totally depends on the FAA, but I should be in the ballpark. Right now, I would not expect anything until early to mid November. We'll see when they reopen. EFTA_R1_00424793 EFTA01955024 Brgds Mike Jet Aviation Flight Services, Inc. Michael Volpe Vice President Client Relations 112 Charles A.

I appreciate that some of these matters are outside Jet's control, but I think we would like to finalize documentation so that Part 135 operations can commence as soon as the aircraft is added to Jet's certificate. And besides, the Part 91 Management Agreement is inaccurate in several respects and needs revision. Best, Michael Michael S. Mandel Direct: +1 202.887.4196 I Internal: 24195 From: Michael Voloe(Thietaviation.com jrnallto:Michael Voloeftietaviation.coml Sent: Monday, August 05, 2013 10:41 AM To: Mandel, Michael; valerie [email protected] Cc: Daigle, Brian; William Beversluislajetaviation.com Subject: RE: Dry Lease Agreement and Charter Services Agreement Good Morning Michael, We should have something back to you today on the Dry Lease Agreement and we are working on the modification of the Management Agreement, I do, however, want to let you know that the FAA has fallen behind their projected timetable for adding aircraft on to the JAFS Part 135 Certificate that has an effect to all Clients. Unexpectedly, they have just reassigned and/or are replacing two of the three members of our Certificate Management Team (CMT). Our assigned Principal Operations Inspector (POI) has been reassigned and replaced by a new Inspector. Our assigned Principal Avionics Inspector (PAI) unfortunately passed away and his responsibilities have not yet been reassigned. Sequestration has also added to this delay as well as their day to day, certificate oversight responsibilities. Once the POI gets acclimated to our Air Carrier program and the PAI is identified, it will take some time for them both to become familiar with and respond to the submitted applications. We expect to begin the conformity process next week but at the present time we have 4 aircraft ahead of N624N in the conformity process and we currently have three submissions to the FAA for approval. EFTA_R1_00424796 EFTA01955027 We understand that this will have an impact to our Clients and to our business and we are diligently working with the Senior Management at the FAA Certificate Holding District Office (CHDO) and the newly assigned Certificate Management Team to mitigate any further delays. The process for adding aircraft onto the JAFS Part 135 certificate has slowed significantly and, based on feedback we have received we believe it could be late October/early November before N624N will be added to the Certificate. We understand your concerns and we will keep you informed on how things progress over the coming weeks. Please let me know if you have any questions.
