The article begins,”Light is thrown both on the workings of the US Civil Aeronautics Board and on the structure on one British independent charter airline by the CAB’s published decision of its hearing of the airline’s application last year for a US foreign air carrier permit. The airline is Lloyd International Airways, which was applying for authority to operate charters (including split charters) and freight charters between the UK and USA.”
and includes, “A summary of the evidence to the CAB follows. Lloyd International is a British company with a share capital of 200,000 £1 shares, of which £100,000 were issued and outstanding.
