Elite Flight Solutions Set For Expansion with New Funding
SARASOTA, Fla., May 19, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Elite Flight Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB: EFLT) announced today that it has acquired approval for additional equity funding up to fourteen million dollars ($14,000,000).
The funding proceeds will be used to embark on an aggressive growth phase for the company which will include near term plans to acquire two SAAB 30 passenger planes for group charter operations and longer term plans to expand to eight sites nationwide for charter jet services.
The recent transfer of a F.A.R. Part 135 certificate to Elite has set the stage for the addition of several aircraft to be operated at jetports around the country. This expansion will include a major increase in Elite's fleet of available aircraft. Between the new funding and the Part 135 certificate, Elite will focus on adding aircraft at multiple locations in the heavy, medium and light aircraft categories.
Elite's president, Michelle Mathis said today, "This new round of funding will allow us to pursue our growth strategy without delay. We are excited about the new opportunities that Elite is able to take advantage of with the funding commitments. I'm looking forward to an exciting second half of the year for Elite."
