attempted to charter a helicopter at Fostaire Helicopters, a member
of the National Air Transportation Association (NATA) and a Part
135 operator based at St. Louis Downtown Airport, in Sauget,

A Convair 580 cargo aircraft operated by Air Tahoma out of

General Aviation (GA) facility at the St. Louis Downtown
Airport.
