This has reference to your letter of November 7, 1973, to the
General Services Administration concerning the sale of Air America
and Southern Air Transport.. By letter dated November 29, 1973, GSA
referred your letter to the Board.
Air America does not hold any operating authority from the Board.
However, as your letter recognizes, Southern Air Transport holds
certificates of public convenience and necessity as a supplemental
air carrier, and proceedings for acquisition of the control of the
carrier by Mr..Stanley G. Williams are in progress before an
administrative law judge of the Board. However, on December 3, 1973,
the carrier filed a petition (copy enclosed) requesting the Board to
cancel its certificates and other operating authority issued by the
Board effective as of December 30, 1973. It also has filed a motion
for leave to sthdraw the application in the acquisition proceeding.
In accordance with established Board procedures, all interested
persons may file comments on whether the Board should grant Southern's
petition for cancellation of its certificates, and the Board will
serve copies of all notices and orders which it issues with respect
to this matter upon the appropriate governmental agencies.
Encl sure
Gr'GL'
Chairman
