<span style="color: red; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">
WORLD AIRSHIP FLIGHT</span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;"><br /></span></h2>
<div align="center" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">
</span><b><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 15.5pt;">SOLAR POWERED air
transport is the future!</span></b></div>
<div style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><br />
</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">We have been working towards this goal for three
decades. Recent advancements in solar cell technologies is making solar powered
flight possible; and several small airplanes are already flying.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><br />
<br />
</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">However, only large airships have the room
needed to carry enough solar cells to create aircraft that can carry large
numbers of passengers or cargo. No airplane can do this, simply because they do
not have the square foot capacity needed.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><br />
<br />
</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">The new solar powered airship uses the
"turtle" airship design, and is NOT A BLIMP. Our goal is to create a
worldwide airship industry; manufacturing and operating large numbers of rigid
shelled, fast, amphibious, solar powered airships. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<b><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">What will it be like to
fly in modern solar powered airships?<br />
</span></b><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Airship passengers will
enjoy private staterooms with showers, with large picture windows that can be
opened for fresh air during flight. Meals are prepared in on-board kitchens and
served in fine dining salons. Dance floors Libraries, Internet connections.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Airship flight is
silent. There is no "turbulence", or banking as on an airplane.
Airship flight is so smooth that the FAA does not require seatbelts. Passengers
can walk throughout the airship while in flight, including take-off and
landings.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Airships fly at very low
altitudes above the surface; allowing passengers the opportunity for the most
spectacular aerial sightseeing! And, in many instances, airships will are able
to stop in mid-air and silently float above scenic attractions below such as
wildlife, whales, volcanos, icebergs, city lights, etc.<br />
We are always pleased to answer questions about our business; and, will be
pleased to discuss investment or joint venture opportunities, and we will
gladly assist other organizations to create this new form of air transport.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><br />
<br />
</span><b><span style="color: red; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 21.5pt;">We will build a solar
powered airship and fly it around the world.</span></b><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 21.5pt;"><b><span style="color: #005500;"></span></b><br />
</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">It will be constructed of high strength aircraft
grade aluminum alloy reinforced with carbon fiber composites. The top half of
the airship will be covered with thin film photovoltaic cells. Electric power
generated by these solar cells will be stored in batteries, or used to drive
four electric motor propellers. A back-up system will use a biodiesel powered
engine to power a generator to allow the airship to fly during bad weather or
at night. </span></div>
<div style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><br />
</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">We will investigate the use of JET engines that
can burn low cost/low emissions biodiesel fuels (airplanes cannot use diesel
fuel effectively because of the colder temperatures at high altitudes)</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><br />
<br />
</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">JET engines will enable the airships to fly much
faster than in the past.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><br />
<br />
</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">The airship will be a true vertical take
off/land craft; and will not need any airport runways or other ground
facilities to operate from. The airship will be designed as an amphibious
craft, able to land or take off from land or water. It will make several
landings in unimproved fields and the middle of the ocean in order to
demonstrate these capabilities.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><br />
<br />
</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">The airship will carry 3-5 persons (pilot and
media). </span><span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><br />
</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">It will measure approximately 125' long x 75'
wide and 30' in height.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><br />
</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Cruise speed of the airship is expected to be
80-100 mph.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><br />
</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><br />
This promotional demonstration flight will highlight the capabilities of the
"turtle" airship design. Contract sales of larger airships will
result from positive media exposure to this new form of SOLAR POWERED FLIGHT.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><br />
<br />
</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">The planned route of the Round-the-World flight
will travel eastward from a departure point in the U.S. southwest near the city
of Phoenix; and is expected to include stops at these locations: </span><br />
