                Memorandum of August 21, 2009

                
Provision of Aviation Insurance Coverage for 
                Commercial Air Carrier Service in Domestic and 
                International Operations

                Memorandum for the Secretary of Transportation

                By the authority vested in me as President by the 
                Constitution and laws of the United States including 49 
                U.S.C. 44302, et seq., I hereby:

                1. Determine that continuation of U.S. flag commercial 
                air service is necessary in the interest of air 
                commerce, national security, and the foreign policy of 
                the United States.

                2. Approve provision by the Secretary of Transportation 
                of insurance or reinsurance to U.S. flag air carriers 
                against loss or damage arising out of any risk from the 
                operation of an aircraft in the manner and to the 
                extent provided in Chapter 443 of 49 U.S.C., until 
                August 31, 2010, when he determine that such insurance 
                or reinsurance cannot be obtained on reasonable terms 
                and conditions from any company authorized to conduct 
                an insurance business in a State of the United States.

                You are directed to bring this determination 
                immediately to the attention of all air carriers within 
                the meaning of 49 U.S.C. 40102 (a) (2), and to arrange 
                for its publication in the Federal Register.
                
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    Washington, August 21, 2009
