| | etter to Foreign Carriers on Requirement to File Plans (1/29/98) |
 | | Since the Foreign Air Carrier Family Support Act was signed into law on December 16, 1997, plans are due to be filed not later than June 15, 1998. |
 | | Note that while a foreign air carrier may, if it chooses, contract with an outside source to act as a point of contact and provide communication services in the event of an accident, in such a situation full responsibility for complying with the provisions of the law remains with the foreign air carrier. |
 | | Questions concerning the applicability of the requirements of the Foreign Air Carrier Family Support Act to a particular foreign air carrier should be addressed to George Wellington, Chief, Foreign Air Carrier Licensing Division, Office of International Aviation, DOT, at (202) 366-2391. |
