5. GOALS To exercise and employ our expertise and acumen in co-dominating the unmanned aviation commercial/civil and defense markets.

5.1 Commercial They include building another 75’ Spirit of Dallas class or 95’ unmanned airship and either returning to Canada to follow up on or, get new certification through the Special Flight Operations Flight Certificate (SFOC) process. This will allow us to operate in both a commercial and civil capacity in

4

Canadian airspace, and act as a stepping-stone for certification in other countries including the U.S. under an Experimental Airworthiness Certificate (EAC) in a civil capacity.

The Congress has mandated that the FAA integrate commercial UAS into the NAS by mid 2015. We plan to have our flight proven demonstrator and in stock systems ready to sell when this market opens up.

This effort has been shelved for the time being as we have focused on gaining experience in the ISR defense market(s). Our plan includes either self-funding the construction of another demonstrator system or, entering into a strategic partnership to complete these plans before the mandated deadline.

5.2 Defense Package and market our concepts; mature prototypes and products/services as solutions for asymmetric threats to government branches that specialize in rapid deployments and have funding flexibility. We possess a catalog of whitepapers for systems and applications including hybrid tethered/free blimp, the Dynamic Blimp Network, NRHRU, Dropkick (robot dropping), Mother ship (sUAS dropping), Self Docking Capture System.

MILITARY EXPERIENCE U.S. Army, Ft. Carson, Colorado Springs, Colorado. Served for four years as a Bradley Fighting Vehicle hull mechanic (job ID number 63T). I achieved the rank of corporal (E-4). I flew RCMATS (Radio Control Miniature Aerial Targets) for three years and eventually took over entire program. Flew a few test UAVs at Ft Huachuca in Arizona. I worked in the S3 shop. Though I was only an e-4 I was an SOP evaluator and gave briefs to the higher brass on training and evaluation of aerial threat detection and response. After flying mock attacks on FOB bases I spent hours debriefing the company commanders on how their companies responded to the aerial threats and how they can do better next time. I might of not had the higher rank, but at the time UAVs where so new that there was not a path for rapid rank advancement as was in other MOSes. As SOP evaluator it was my job to make sure the sensor payload operators where being utilized to their maximum potential, and that the proper information was passed up the chain.

EMPLOYMENT HISTORY Galaxy RPV Ft Worth, Texas. Owner. Co-founded company with my brother Jason White. The company was started in September 2000, and in that time we built 6 display models, 2 fixed wing UAVs (one was sold to ISR inc.), 3 indoor R/C blimps, and 10 outdoor R/C blimps.
