Eviation Jets, Producer Of The Vantage Jet, Applies For CTA Certification

Private Business Flyers To Receive New Option

For Immediate Release

SAO JOSE DOS CAMPOS, Brazil And AMES, Iowa/EWORLDWIRE/May 2, 2005 --- Travelers who need speed, comfort, and affordability in small airline transportation may find a solution in the form of Eviation Jets' Vantage Jets in the near future.

The Vantage Jet, designed as a private business jet, is safer, has higher performance standards, flies at higher altitudes and is more comfortable and quiet compared to other low-cost alternatives.

Eviation Jets' made its application for certification to the Brazilian Center for Aerospace Technology (CTA), which was approved April, 28. This means the jet will be permitted to travel in U.S. airspace - the United States' Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) maintains a reciprocal agreement which allows the CTA to certify aircraft in Brazil and receive dual certification in the U.S.

The development of the jet comes out of Eviation Jets' acquisition of all technical drawings, trademarks, molds and tooling of bankrupt VisionAire Corporation of St. Louis, Mo. on Oct. 2, 2003.

To establish a local presence in Brazil, facilitate financial investment, manage local subcontracts, and manage the aeronautical engineering team, Eviation Jets created a local Brazilian subsidiary, Eviation Jets do Brasil Ltda. Guido Pessotti, president and chief engineer of the Brazilian subsidiary, is responsible for Vantage Jet certification and managing the aerospace engineering team. Pessotti's experience includes design and certification of 13 different jet aircraft.

The classic prototype of the Vantage jet has been redesigned to include the addition of two 2,100-pound-thrust Williams FJ44-1AP turbofans mounted on the exterior of the fuselage. This in turn increased the fuselage capacity and is now slated to seat up to 10 people.

Eviation Jets is featured in an in-depth cover story in Revista Flap magazine. Visit www.revistaflap.com.br for more information.
