90-DAY ESSENTIAL AIR SERVICE NOTICE OF

BIDZY TA HOT AANA CORP. d/b/a TANANA AIR SERVICE

OF INTENT TO TERMINATE UNSUBSIDIZED SERVICE

AT MINTO AND MANLEY, ALASKA

Bidzy Ta Hot Aana Corp. d/b/a Tanana Air Service (Tanana), under 49 USC
41734 and 14 CFR 323.3(a)(5) hereby gives notice of its intent to
terminate all services at Minto, Alaska and Manley, Alaska, effective on
or before July 8, 2004.  Additionally, Tanana requests waiver of the
90-day notice requirement to terminate unsubsidized air service.  In
support thereof, Tanana respectfully states as follows:

Tanana has its principal place of business at 3730 University Avenue,
South, Fairbanks, AK  99701, and its telephone number is (907) 474-0301.

Tanana holds a certificate of public convenience and necessity under 49
USC 41102 to engage in scheduled air transportation of persons, property
and mail between points in the United States.

Tanana currently provides three flights a week with small aircraft
between the points of Minto and Manley and the hub point Fairbanks, AK. 
The service is operated on Monday, Wednesday and Friday on the following
schedule:

Dep FAI	1000	Arr MLY	1040

Dep MLY	1045	Arr MNT	1110

Dep MNT	1115	Arr FAI	1145

No other scheduled air service is provided at Minto and Manley.

The Department of Transportation has determined the level of Essential
Air Service at Minto and Manley at two roundtrips per week year around
with small aircraft.

There are no alternative services available at either of these points.

Due to changes in mail distribution under the Rural Service Improvement
Act, and the uncertainties about mail dispatch in general, Tanana has
suffered significant operating losses across its system and intends to
reduce service at several of its hubs, including at Fairbanks.  It is
Tanana’s intention to cease service at these points as soon as a
suitable replacement has been approved by the Department.

Under 14 CFR 323.10(a)(3), objections to this notice are due in 20 days,
or on April 29, 2004.

Proof of Service on all persons specified in 14 CFR 323.7(a) is
attached.

Respectfully submitted,

Bidzy Ta Hot Aana Corp. d/b/a Tanana Air Service

By Harold Esmailka, its President
