Considering all the above and in order to ensure uninterrupted operation, Airest Inc.
applies for 2-month transition period for modification and replacement of the Cockpit
Voice Recorders on Airest SAAB fleet.
This transition period of 2-months is required for modification and consecutive
replacement of Cockpit Voice Recorders from P/N 980-6020-001 to P/N 980-6022-
001.
If during this granted transition period Airest Inc. will not be able to modify all Cockpit
Voice Recorders P/N 980-6020-001 to P/N 980-6022-001, Airest will replace Cockpit
Voice Recorders with new ones.

transition period is established by Airest CAMO and is attached to existing application.
Safety level is maintained by the fact that this is short time extension and all currently
