Looks like someone else crashed the symposium besides Chris, heres a post off ragingbull: By: Nadge Reply To #472 by danmobley Tuesday, 9 Mar 1999 at 12:17 PM EST Post # of 487 Dear dan, your position on the plfm and the rides we all have been taking is valid, I have extensive background in this type of technology, and I have attended few of the press conferences including the latest one and every body that was involved with the company was there including Serge Yakolov and some of the main engineers, I spoke to most of them and asked good questions and got reasonable answers Howard and his team are now becoming better business man and you must know that Howard is also a Pilot and an engineer. the deal with Brazil was not going to be easy because every body wants money to let you get to the next department if you know what I mean, that is the way with most of the third world countries, so you go develop some were else like a European country which is exactly what Howard did, meanwhile you learn about the way Brazilians operate and that is what the company is doing, The ARC system works and it has been documented in the San Diego Test while back. ARC also can be leased for short term stuff such as providing Communication in natural disaster area like as in Honduras where the local communications system got wiped out, and can be deployed quickly, and the government of brazil has a mandate to provide communication for the Amazon region. Ground based System are no can do and the ARC is the only solution. In addition Some of the ARC Competitors can become Customers, Lets say in one of the third world county the study shows that Cellular communication may or may not produce the client base necessary to implement ground based communication ARC Can be deployed on a temporary base solution and instant revenue generated until a ground based system is implemented. so in short I don't believe that i'm naive, just well informed and I have not even begun talking about the Aircraft, and space division of plfm.
