Air National, the charter airline that has been in dispute with the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), has relinquished its air operating certificate.

The CAA said it had received a letter from the company advising of the move.

As many as 40 staff could lose their jobs as a result, according to media reports.

In January, the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) suspended Air National's operator certificate for 10 working days after a routine audit found evidence of alleged falsification of training records.

Air National was founded in 1989 and is a charter airline. It also provides daily return services between Christchurch and Oamaru, and Christchurch and Hokitika for Air New Zealand Link, according to its website.
