Jeffrey, an update on the status of the plane ....
Hello Tom
We have just about completed the conformity, but everything is shut down with the FAA so we
are unable to submit the paperwork for approval until they reopen. 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.

I agree. We plan to have everything in place, Agreement wise, so that we will be ready to add the
aircraft to the JAFS Part 135 Certificate as soon as the FAA completes their approval process.

Understood, and thanks for keeping us apprised. 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

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.
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.
Best regards
