Item 4.02  Non-Reliance of Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.


On July 29, 2010, following the receipt of comments from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) with respect to the classification of the outstanding shares of preferred stock of Alpine Air Express, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the Company’s Board of Directors determined that the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2009, should no longer be relied on.  The Company’s preferred stock has been classified in the subject financial statements as a part of stockholder’s equity.  Pursuant to the Commission’s comment letter and management’s review of applicable accounting standards, pronouncements and interpretations, the Board of Directors has determined to prepare restated financial statements reclassifying the preferred stock outside of common equity and to prepare and file with the Commission an amended Annual Report on Form 10-K-A1 for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2009.  The restatement of the subject financial statements will have no effect on the Company’s total assets, total liabilities, revenues, net income, or net income per common share.  Management has discussed the above-referenced matters with the Company’s independent accountants, Jones Simkins, P.C.
