OST-2007-28808 - Colgan Air - Certificate - US-Canada
|
Colgan Air, Inc. OST-2007-28808 - Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity - US-Canada July 19, 2007 Application for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity Colgan Air, Inc. applies for a certificate of public convenience and necessity to engage in scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property and mail from points in the United States to a point or points in Canada. Colgan holds a commuter fitness determination, is an operating commuter air carrier and essential air service provider serving over 50 U.S. and Canadian cities. Colgan intends in the coming months to inaugurate scheduled operations within the United States and between the United States and Canada utilizing Bombardier Dash-8 Q400 aircraft designed and configured for greater than 60 seats, hence this application. Colgan plans to inaugurate revenue operations utilizing the first of its new Dash-8 Q400s on or about January 5, 2008. Ultimately, Colgan will operate 14 operational patterns or “lines” of flying under its Continental Airlines code-share agreement using the Dash-8 Q400 aircraft. Newark’s Liberty International Airport will be the hub of these operations, which will fly under the Continental Connection trade name. The 15 aircraft will be phased in from January through June 2008, with one aircraft utilized as a spare. Concurrent with the filing of this application, Colgan has filed an application for a certificate of public convenience and necessity to engage in scheduled interstate air transportation of persons, property and mail, including complementary authority to engage in interstate and foreign charter air transportation of persons, property and mail.

OST-2007-28807 - Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity August 3, 2007 Clarification of Certificate Applications On July 19, 2007, Colgan Air, Inc. applied for both interstate and foreign Certificates of Public Convenience and Necessity in the above dockets, respectively. In paragraph 9 and Exhibit 304 of those applications, Colgan stated there was only one pending action or outstanding judgment against it involving an amount in excess of $5,000. It since has come to our attention that Colgan is involved in litigation arising from the hijacked flights on September 11, 2001. Currently, Colgan is one of the defendants to seventeen wrongful death/personal injury and sixteen property damage and business loss claims resulting from the crash of American Airlines Flight 11. Colgan's defense of these claims was assumed by its insurance company, Global Aerospace. Colgan believes any liability arising from these claims will fall within its insurance coverage limits and, in any event, may be required by statute not to exceed its coverage. In preparing this portion of its certificate applications, Colgan staff believed that because Colgan's insurance company had assumed the defense, disclosure of this matter was not necessary. This explains why this litigation was not included in Colgan's initial applications. Under the circumstances, Colgan does not believe this matter has an impact on its interstate or foreign certificate applications. Counsel: Garofalo Goerlich, Gary Garofalo, 202-776-3970
