Eclipse's ETIRC Announcement, Part One Of Three
Today, ANN brings you Part One of Monday's press briefing in
Albuquerque, NM, at which Eclipse Aviation President/CEO Vern
Raburn announced the company will get a $100 million-plus infusion
of cash from Dutch investment firm ETIRC, and assemble the Eclipse
500 very-light jet at a Russian plant to serve customers in Russia,
Turkey, Eastern and Western Europe, and the UK.

We'll wrap up the briefing tomorrow... and Thursday, bring you
ANN Managing Editor Rob Finfrock's talk with Raburn after the
briefing.
This feature is in addition to our daily news briefing --
available in either a quick "Touch And Go" format, or an expanded
Aero-Briefing -- where you'll hear these stories:
Eclipse drops a bombshell at a press conference...
EADS says its new tanker will mean more jobs in
Alabama...
And Boeing counters that its design will save the Air Force
fuel
...And more

Our DAILY programs consist of (at least) three separate
products.
- ANN's Daily 'Touch & Go' Aero-Cast: A
quick look at the most recent news of the day... short, succinct
and to the point. The usual 'Touch & Go' takes but a few
minutes and is a summary, only, of the day's events... and it only
takes a few minutes of your time.
- ANN's Daily Briefing Aero-Cast: The Daily ANN
Report (ANNRep for short), is a more comprehensive look at the
day's news. We give you the whole buzz... the news and features
that occupy the forefront of aviation news as well as solid
background on the subjects that aviators and other aviation
professionals need to stay informed on.
- ANN's Daily 'ASR' Feature Aero-Cast: Our daily
'Aero-News Special Report' involves a more in-depth view of a story
or two that dominated (or will be dominating) the day's news. Far
more detailed than any single story in our standard ANN Daily
Reports, this is a solid chance to get a close look at the stories
and topics that matter. ASR features may include exclusive
interviews with Aviation's Newsmakers, ANN's Special Investigative
reports and solid analysis of the stories that will have undeniable
impact on the world of aviation and aerospace.

Check them out, let us know what you think and be sure to keep
those news-tips and program suggestions coming... ANN is ALL about
what YOU want to know about in the world of aviation and
aerospace.
