Nations Air Express, Inc.

Docket 29132 | February 5, 1998

Grant of an Exemption

The petitioner states that it has a fleet consisting of one Stage 3 Boeing 737-200 and two Stage 2 Boeing 727-200 airplanes. The petitioner is requesting an emergency exemption pursuant to § 11-27(j) because its only Stage 3 airplane was severely damaged from a tornado on February 2, 1998, at Miami International Airport, Miami, Florida. Without its Stage 3 airplane, Nations Air may only operate one Stage 2 airplane to remain in compliance with § 91.867.
