US Denies Export Privileges to Aviation Industry Parties

The U.S. Bureau of Industry and Security has issued an order denying the export privileges of:

• Ribway Airlines Company Limited,
• Af-Aviation Limited,
• Andy Farmer,
• John Edward Meadows, and
• Jeffrey John James Ashfield.

This is a temporary denial order that is only valid for 180 days, unless extended.  Although published in today’s Federal register, the order is actually dated January 19, 2016.  The Order prohibits the denied parties from engaging in export transactions, and it includes a prohibition against third parties exporting from the U.S. to any of these denied parties.

ASA members with a history of doing business with any of these parties should ensure that their future transactions remain consistent with U.S. law.
