Company To Extend Global Reach

Eclipse Aviation has reached yet another milestone. The company is currently exhibiting, for the first time, at the Asian Aerospace 2004 trade show in Singapore through February 29th. Asian Aerospace is Asia's premier aerospace and defense technology exhibition. In addition to sharing the latest information on the Eclipse 500 jet with potential customers, Eclipse will work to expand its global network to include distribution and product support partners for the Eclipse 500 jet in Asia.

"European sales of the Eclipse 500 have been very strong, and expanding our network in Asia is the next logical step in our international growth strategy," said Vern Raburn, president and CEO of Eclipse Aviation.

"We are seeing an increase in customer interest globally, and our goal is to give customers in Asia access to the world's most advanced very light jet with a world class distribution and product support network in place to meet their market needs."

The Eclipse 500 will be RVSM capable for operation in all Asian countries at FAA Type Certification in early 2006, considering most Asian countries have implemented or will be implementing RVSM requirements in 2005. The Eclipse 500 will exceed the ICAO Stage 3 noise requirements, which addresses the growing concern throughout Asia about aircraft noise at airports located in large, congested areas. With superior take-off and landing performance, unmatched in any business jet, the Eclipse 500 will also be able to operate at smaller Asian airfields located in many of the larger cities that currently lack jet service.
