OST-97-2719
USA Jet Airlines, Inc. (Amendment and Reissuance of Certificate of Public Convenience, Interstate Charter)
OST-97-2719 | July 15, 1997
Amendment and reissuance of its domestic certificate of public convenience and necessity to authorize USA Jet to provide interstate charter air transportation of persons, property and mail. USA Jet requests that this application be processed through the use of expedited non-hearing procedures, and that the Department's final decision on this application be issued in time to enable USA Jet to commence passenger operations on or about September 1, 1997. To enable USA Jet to meet this objective, USA Jet requests that the Department, if possible, proceed directly to a Final Order in this matter.
USA Jet has projected operating revenues based on the assumption that it will operate a total of 567 DC-8 block hours per quarter yielding average quarterly DC-8 revenues of $1,632,393 and annual revenues of $6,529,572. USA Jet's projected quarterly operating expense is estimated at $1,630,889 or a total annual operating expense of $6,523,556, which results in an annual operating profit of $6,016 for the proposed operations.

USA Jet Airlines, Inc. (Scheduled Cargo Economic Authority)
OST-97-2719 | September 18, 1997 (Dated September 17, 1997)
USA Jet's financial forecast for the DC-9 Scheduled Cargo Operation contemplates first year gross revenues of $5,000,000 based on 1764 block hours. In this regard, the Company projects a generous operating profit of $928,664 for the first year. As USA Jet's financial statements reflect, the Company is more than able to support such an Operation with internal-generated funds, and meets the Department's financial fitness requirements. USA Jet also has a $1 Million Line of Credit with the Michigan National Bank, N.A.

OST-97-2719 & OST-97-2720 | December 17, 1997
USA Jet confirms that its plan for inauguration of scheduled all-cargo service, which involves one aircraft, has not changed. USA Jet also concurs that its FSDO is poised to issue corresponding op specs amendments upon receipt of the go-ahead from the Department.
As to cancellation of redundant DOT certificates, USA Jet will defer to the Department's judgment on the matter. Naturally, this is subject to the understanding that USA Jet's existing authority will not be diminished in any way.

USA Jet Airlines, Inc. (Certificates of Public Convenience, Interstate/Foreign Scheduled)
Order 98-2-25 | OST-97-2719 | OST-97-2720 | Issued February 23, 1998 | Served February 27, 1998
Final Order - Issuing Effective Certificate Authority
Today, USA Jet's fleet consists of seven DC-9-NSF freighters operated under its Part 121 certificate authority and twelve DA-20 Falcon Jet freighters operated under its Part 135 certificate authority. While USA Jet's charter cargo operations have been and continue to be primarily focused on the automotive industry, it has also provided charter cargo operations for DHL, UPS, and the U.S. Postal Service using its DC-9 aircraft.
USA Jet indicates in its application that its proposed scheduled cargo operation is merely a natural outgrowth of services it has performed on a charter basis. Once USA Jet receives its requested authority, it initially proposes to provide scheduled cargo operations on an Yipslanti-St. Louis-El Paso-Kansas City-Yipslanti routing five times weekly using an aircraft from its current DC-9 fleet. USA Jet indicates that it will be performing these scheduled cargo services for past customers such as the U.S. Postal Service, Integrated Box Companies, and Logistics Providers.
