The Secretary should give equal consideration to the consumer benefits associated with the award of such exemptions. “(2) Applicability.— Paragraph (1) does not apply in any case in which the air carrier requesting the slot exemption is proposing to use under the exemption a type of aircraft for which there is not a competing United States manufacturer.”.
