You've got to be kidding me? Is this a reincarnated Aeromar? I wouldn't believe any Dominican carrier would be successful operating 10 737s, let alone if they believe the US is going to let a Dominican carrier operate a Dominican-registered 737 to Miami. They're nuts.

latinaviation,

I believe you've misread the post. It is for 10 crews to operate 3 Boeing 737's. I imagine that the aircraft will be N-numbered-- nothing new there-- Grupo TACA does the same and for all we know, with bases in Miami and Santo Domingo may well be run by the Miami mob with head offices in Miami.

Got it, thanks Jack. Coffee hasn't kicked in. Either way, I am skeptical. I've been watching Dominican airlines come-and-go - all with glossy business plans, hoopla, we're gonna change the world. Atlantic, APA, Queen, Viva, Aeromar...I am sure there are more that escape me right now. Sounds like just one more to add to the list.

hmmm what can I say? I think they are gonna need luck to be able to compete with Aeropostal/Aserca on the CCS route, Copa on the PTY route and American and all other US airlines that fly to Miami. Wish them the best!

I only have details about the Dominican-Venezuelan market. Aeropostal operates daily with DC9-51s, with a stop in either Aruba or Curaçao (depends on the day). Aserca operates DC9-32s twice a week (used to be daily but traffic dropped). Avior, aserca and aeropostal run about 4 charters each a week to Punta Cana.

So I guess it's gonna be tough to compete with those well established airlines. Aserca already had to reduce frecuency because they were sending empty planes to SDQ.

Gday i think you might need to convert to local license unless they operate N registered planes.
Have you asked what is the procedure for conversion?Im also interested to know how i would convert a JAA license.

People.

If the carrier intends to operate to the United States it will need to do so using N-registered aircraft, or those of another country which does not have a problem with Categorization as do the Dominican Republic.

I live and work here in the DR and the local DGAC does not have
any information on Aero de Dominicana. There is some talk in and around the local airprots, but no real hard infor.


Speaking to a friend who was the DO for Aeromar told me that it's sounds like Aeromar is trying to do it again. So don't hold your breath.

And just some local information, the FAA is here doing an assessment on the DGAC, to see if the DR can be up graded
from 2* to a 2 category.

Fly Safe.
