The paper examines the simplified non-LTE calculations of the C I lambda1101 absorption edge performed for model atmospheres of effective temperatures of 10,000 and 11,000 K and a surface gravity of 10,000 cm/s, including the charge transfer reaction C + H(+) reversibly yields C(+) + H + 2.34 eV. The rate coefficient suggested by Steigman (1975) in an analysis of the hot intercloud medium is adopted; the neutral carbon atom is approximated by three levels plus continuum. The ionization equilibrium C I/C II in early A-type stellar atmospheres is significantly influenced by the charge transfer reaction; the effect decreases with the increasing effective temperature.
