Flight Safety Technologies, Inc. (AMEX:FLT), a developer of
technologies designed to monitor wake turbulence with the goal of
reducing airport delays, and enhancing aviation safety, is the
subject of the cover story in the current issue of Airport
Magazine. The article, which was written by Dr. Neal Fine who is
Senior Vice President of Technology for the Company, focuses on the
Company's unique Aircraft Wake Safety Management (AWSM) system that
is designed to integrate direct, real-time measurements of flight
paths, weather parameters and wake vortex positions at flight
critical locations with predicted information, enabling air traffic
controllers to provide basic radar separation to all aircraft under
normal conditions. Flight Safety Technologies' President, William
B. Cotton, said that AWSM could improve upon the FAA's current wake
mitigation plan by providing a comprehensive solution to the
problem of additional wake spacing of aircraft during takeoffs and
landings at major airports. "Currently, costly delays occur because
safety requires that additional spacing be provided behind large
and heavy aircraft since vortex behavior is not currently monitored
or predicted. The AWSM system would incorporate two types of
real-time monitoring sensors: Flight Safety's opto-acoustic sensor,
SOCRATES� and a laser-velocimeter, called LIDAR. This real-time
monitoring characteristic could validate predicted vortex behavior
and provide for both improved safety and additional runway
capacity. NASA-sponsored studies have shown that a system like AWSM
has the potential to generate hundreds of millions of dollars
annually in cost savings due to reduced delays. Considering the
increasing mix of super-heavy and very light aircraft, the economic
impact of such a system could eventually surpass a billion dollars
annually," Mr. Cotton said. Flight Safety Technologies plans to
show a "canned emulation" of AWSM next month, based on aircraft
arrival data recorded in earlier tests including SOCRATES� and
LIDAR sensors. The demonstration also will involve aircraft wake
movement predictions provided by NASA, to show how these
predictions are validated by the sensors. Subject to funding
availability, the Company plans to conduct a live emulation
beginning about April 2007, which could be followed by an initial
beta test later in the same year. Several airports have expressed
interest in testing the system, including US airports in Memphis
(MEM), Las Vegas (LAS), Anchorage (ANC), and Honolulu (HNL). The
Company states that beta testing will facilitate a system safety
assessment which is one of the necessary steps to obtaining FAA
commissioning of the system for operational use. Beta site testing
would be subject to a variety of factors, including but not limited
to, success of the emulations, suitable arrangements with a host
airport and the availability of government or private financing, of
which there can be no assurance. About Flight Safety Technologies,
Inc. Flight Safety Technologies, Inc. is a development stage
company pursuing advanced technologies aimed at enhancing safety,
security and efficiency for the aviation industry. The Company is
currently pursuing four technologies including AWSM, described
above, SOCRATES�, UNICORN� and TIICM�. SOCRATES� is an airport
based laser acoustic sensor for the detection and tracking of wake
vortex turbulence. UNICORN is an airborne radar for collision
avoidance using state of the art components to achieve low cost,
small size and light weight. TIICM is an airborne passive
countermeasure system to protect airliners against the threat of
certain terrorist missile attacks. About AIRPORT magazine AIRPORT

airport business world-wide. With circulation of 13,000, it is read
