>> First time, I was like 6 years old, went on a flight
out to Seattle, and got invited back the 4911,
[inaudible] right back into the cockpit,
and the copilot actually stood up, let me sit down,
and see while we were at altitude
in the air in a Boeing 727.
And from that time on, it just lit my fire,
that's what I wanted to do.
I was thinking about graduation and nearly got asked, you know,
what is that you wanna do [inaudible].
We decided that it was the general aviation that we wanted
to save and have continued for generations
so that others can pursue their passion.
And those airplanes have a gasoline
that still is the only leaded gasoline
on the phase of the earth.
We can't get away from aviation because we demand
that high performance and power that you can't get
from any other fuel or fuel component.
It's a replacement for that fuel that we developed that can mix
in the tank with the current fuel
that provides the same power
and performances as the current fuel.
And by the way, it's made 100 percent
from renewable sustainable sources.
So no petroleum, no lead.
We can use [inaudible] mass, but we don't have to.
We can use traditional petroleum [inaudible] as well.
We're working with the oil companies to prove production
and prove that it can be done economically,
wrap up any of those last concerns, prove it in front
of the industry, get our final specification,
and we're good to go.
We think we can do that within a year or two.
There will be plenty of time to fly later on.
Without a fuel, nobody will be flying.
And so, we're making that difference [inaudible].
