Air Technology Engines to Attend Dubai Airshow 2009

(Naples, FL – October 01, 2008)
Naples-based Air Technology Group, which includes Air Technology Inc. and Air Technology Engines Inc., will participate in Dubai Air Show in The United Arab Emirates, November 15-19, 2009.

The Dubai Airshow, a biennial event, opens its doors promising more exhibition space, plus innovative and technically-advanced aircraft, equipment and systems from the world's leading players in the aerospace industry today. The five day show will have over one third of its exhibition space dedicated to defense companies. It is noted as the foremost aerospace event in the Middle East and the fastest growing in the world.

Alison Weller, Director of Airshow Organiser F&E Aerospace, expressed her appreciation for the Airshow's support, despite the current economic down-turn and noted that the global aviation industry is currently undergoing the most challenging period in its history. She said that the industry is now looking to the Middle East where aerospace suppliers and service providers have managed to weather the economic maelstrom better than elsewhere.

Mike Turner, President and CEO of the Air Technology Group said, "We look forward to returning to the Dubai Airshow again this year. We will be partnering with Enterprise Florida again and exhibiting in the Florida Pavilion. This is always a great opportunity to meet existing and prospective clients and explain the many benefits our company has to offer the industry. With over 35 years of helicopter experience, we have a lot to offer...expertise, integrity and solutions."

The Florida Pavilion will be made up of varied Florida companies in a joint effort to showcase Florida's capabilities. According to Ken Cooksey of Enterprise Florida, the Florida Pavilion won Best Booth from the America's in 2007. This is the fifth trip to the Dubai Airshow for Enterprise Florida.
