FLYHT Signs and Ships Dragon(TM) to Launch Customer
CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Dec 10, 2013) - FLYHT Aerospace
Solutions Ltd. (TSX-VENTURE:FLY) ("FLYHT" or the "Corporation") is
pleased to announce the sale and shipment of five of its recently
released Dragon products to DAC Aviation International Ltee./DAC
Aviation (EA) Ltd. ("DAC").
The Dragon is a revolutionary, lightweight, portable satellite
communications device that blends existing FLYHT technology with
that of the iPad. DAC plans to deploy the Dragon immediately on
five Cessna Caravan Aircraft to provide voice and data services in
support of their humanitarian missions in Africa.
Alain Desrochers, President of DAC stated: "The Dragon is the
ideal solution for our challenging theatre of operations. DAC
maintains very high standards for safety and operational control
and the Dragon's voice capability and iPad interface for text
messaging set it apart from other basic tracking systems."
Bill Tempany, President and CEO of FLYHT stated: "We are very
excited to support DAC's growing operation in Africa. The fact that
the Dragon requires no Supplemental Type Certificate allows DAC to
begin operational use of the Dragon immediately. The Dragon is
perfect for the light aircraft and helicopter market that requires
a voice, tracking and text solution, similar to the air transport
market, though does not require installation."
If DAC utilizes the full suite of services on all contracted
Dragons for the full term of the agreement, gross revenue to FLYHT
will be approximately $95,000 USD.
