Filed Against Slice of the 406 LLC, 82 and Sunny LLC, and Associated Parties in MT and MN

The FAA's war against illegal charter, a problem that has been growing at a rapid rate for the last few years, has claimed another target -- this time in the Northern part of the USA.

The U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Aviation Administration has proposed a $339,716 civil penalty against Slice of the 406 LLC, 82 and Sunny LLC, and other associated parties for allegedly conducting illegal charter flights.

The FAA alleges that between July 2017 and November 2018, these parties conducted approximately 26 paid passenger-carrying flights in a Cessna Citation II C550. The agency alleges the parties did not have the required FAA operating or air carrier certificate. The parties also conducted flights without appropriate operations specifications, which outline what a company is authorized to do.

The FAA further alleges the parties conducted operations with unqualified pilots who did not complete FAA-required training, testing, and competency checks.

The parties have 30 days to respond to the FAA after receiving the letter.
