Flight Safety Technologies, Inc (AMEX: FLT) announced that on
February 28, 2007 it had achieved an important milestone in
demonstrating the initial functional emulation of the Aircraft Wake
Safety Management (AWSM) system. The demonstration of this functional
emulation, based on aircraft arrivals previously recorded using
SOCRATES and LIDAR sensors at the Denver International Airport test
site, was delivered at the Volpe National Transportation Systems
Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts. In attendance were Volpe DOT, as
well as Company representatives. The development effort was
accomplished under U.S. Government funding and supplemented by Company
capital funds.
Although the Company believes that this demonstration represents a
major step forward, there is no assurance as to whether or when the
Company will proceed with a live emulation of the AWSM system and no
public or private funding has yet been identified for any U.S. or
international airport implementation. The Company expects that,
following further presentations to FAA and other government officials,
a summary of the demonstration will be made available through a link
in the Company's website in the near future.
