Item 4.01. Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
(a) On November 10, 2004, the Audit Committee of the Board
of Directors of Air T, Inc. (the "Company") decided to no
longer engage Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte & Touche")
as the Company's independent public accountants and to
engage Dixon Hughes PLLC ("Dixon Hughes") as the Company's
independent public accountants to audit the financial
statements of the Company for the fiscal year ending
March 31, 2005.
The audit reports of Deloitte & Touche on the financial
statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended
March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2003 contained no adverse
opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified
or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting
principles.
In connection with the audits of the financial statements of
the Company for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2004 and
March 31, 2003 and through the date hereof, the Company had
no disagreement with Deloitte & Touche on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which
disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of
Deloitte & Touche, would have caused them to make reference
to such disagreement in their reports for such periods; and
there were no reportable events as defined in
Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K .
Deloitte & Touche was provided a copy of the above
disclosures and was requested to furnish the Company with a
letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission
stating whether it agrees with the above statements and, if
not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A
letter from Deloitte & Touche is attached hereto as
Exhibit 16.
(b) On November 17, 2004, the Company engaged the
accounting firm of Dixon Hughes as its independent public
accountants to audit the Company's financial statements for
the fiscal year ending March 31, 2005. The decision to
engage Dixon Hughes was made by the Audit Committee of the
Board of Directors of the Company. During the fiscal years
ended March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2003 and through the
date hereof, the Company did not consult with Dixon Hughes
regarding any of the matters or reportable events set forth
in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
