The Federal Aviation Administration has suspended the license of an Alabama-based aviation company.
Regulators released an order Thursday alleging Sheffield-based Darby Aviation lacks both a suitable operations manual and a training program. Also, the FAA says the company's chief pilot and operations director are unqualified.
No one from Darby Aviation immediately returned a message seeking comment. The company can appeal the decision.
The company also is known as AlphaJet and specializes in charter jet flights from its base in northwest Alabama.
A defunct Florida-based company was accused five years ago of illegally operating a jet charter service on Darby Aviation's license. Four people were hurt when a jet operated by the Florida company crashed on takeoff in Teterboro, N.J., in 2005.
