Item 3.01.    Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
 
On September 16, 2008, Air Transport Services Group, Inc. (the "Company") was notified by The NASDAQ Stock Market ("NASDAQ") that for the last 30 consecutive business days the bid price of the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock") had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued inclusion on the NASDAQ Global Market pursuant to NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(5). This notification has no effect on the listing of the Common Stock at this time.   

In accordance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4450(e)(2), the Company will be provided 180 calendar days, or until March 16, 2009, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. If, at any time before March 16, 2009, the bid price of the Common Stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, the NASDAQ staff will provide the Company with a written notification that it has achieved compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.

If the Company does not regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement by March 16, 2009, the NASDAQ staff will provide the Company with written notification that the Common Stock will be delisted from The NASDAQ Global Market. At that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel. Alternatively, the Company may also apply to transfer the Common Stock to The NASDAQ Capital Market if the Common Stock satisfies all criteria, other than compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, for initial inclusion on such market. In the event of such a transfer, the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules provide that the Company will be afforded an additional 180 calendar days to comply with the minimum bid price requirement while listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market.

On September 22, 2008, the Company issued a press release regarding the notification, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
