		Service List

Accessair's operating proposal changed since its initial fitness determination. Initially, the company's plan was to begin offering a total of 13 scheduled round-trips between Des Moines and the Quad Cities (Davenport and Bettendorf, Iowa, and Moline and Rock Island, Illinois), and the cities of Wichita, Los Angeles, and New York using three 117-seat Boeing 737-200A aircraft. During the first year, Accessair planned to expand its operations to Wichita and to add service between Des Moines and the Quad Cities and Washington, D.C., and San Francisco with the addition of three more B-737 aircraft. The company's revised initial plan will be service from Des Moines to Los Angeles (nonstop) and New York LaGuardia (one stop in Moline and Peoria) using two B-737200 aircraft. In addition, Accessair plans to add a third B-737 aircraft in the latter part of its first year of operations. Accessair furnished letters dated January .22, 1999, from Bankers Trust, West Des Moines State Bank, and Merrill Lynch verifying that it had a total of $4.1 million on deposit in its accounts.
