NOTICE OF REGISTRATION AND CHANGE OF TRADE NAME

On March 30, 2004, Village Aviation, Inc. d/b/a Camai Air requested that
the Department register the trade names “Village Air Cargo” and
“Safari Pacific Airways” for use in certain of its air
transportation operations.  In addition, the company requested that the
Department remove its existing trade name “Camai Air” from its
certificate.  

Part 215 of the Department’s regulations provides that any carrier
wishing to use an alternative trade name must first register that name
with the Department.  The rule further states that the Department may
register such trade name after the carrier gives notification to
similarly named carriers of the proposed use of the trade name.  There
are no other similarly named air carriers.  However, it is our
understanding that Village intends to use the “Safari Pacific
Airways” trade name solely in its proposed operations in American
Samoa.  Given its certificate limitations, the company does not have the
appropriate authority to provide such service.  Therefore, we are, at
this time, deferring the registration of the “Safari Pacific
Airways” trade name.

Under these circumstances, on April 12, 2004, we orally acknowledged the
registration of the trade name “Village Air Cargo” by Village
Aviation for use in its operations.  In addition, we acknowledged that
it is no longer using the existing trade name “Camai Air.”  This
notice serves as written confirmation of our actions.

Dated April 14, 2004 at Washington, D.C.

 	By Order 95-5-1, served May 1, 1995, the Department granted Village
the authority to engage in interstate scheduled air transportation. 
However, that authority limited Village to operations using aircraft
having no more than 30 passenger seats or a 7,500 pound payload, and to
operations within the State of Alaska.  

 	By letter dated April 2, 2004, we notified Village of our intent to
defer the registration of the “Safari Pacific Airways” trade name
until it is able to obtain the necessary authority to conduct its
proposed operations.

 	Should we have occasion to reissue Village’s certificate, we will
remove the “Camai Air” trade name.
