Case Closed for Charter Operator who Sidestepped Dry Lease Regs
The Campbell Oil Company, Executive Aircraft Services, and two personnel have agreed to pay the DOJ a $700,000 fine to clear up the allegations of illegal charter flights, which were cited in a complaint filed last year. The fine was agreed to be paid by the two aforementioned companies and two people, Brian Campbell, and David Stephens. The allegations said that entities had, in collected form, operated more than 150 passenger-carrying revenue flights under a 'sham' dry lease agreement that were, in actuality, essentially wet leases.
