American Friendship

THE AMERICAN FRIENDSHIP VALUE PROPOSITION is based on working with each of our following
partners towards making air cargo a “dedicated and profitable science”, separate from the passenger
business.

AIRLINE CUSTOMERS: We will steadfastly promote the business case for all airlines to “out-source” the
operation of their cargo aircraft to specialized freighter aircraft operators like ourselves. We believe that we
can best serve them under long-term 10-12 year contracts.
AIRCRAFT MANUFACTURERS: We will work towards moving all air cargo on dedicated cargo aircraft thus
insuring the long term viability of the freighter business.
AIRCRAFT FINANCIERS: We will partner with banks and leasing companies to help create “special financing
structures” to lower financing costs for new and used freighter aircraft, thereby creating a new market for
their products.
DEDICATED CARGO AIRPORTS: We are committed to promoting the use of “lower cost” dedicated cargo
airports as a long term solution for the air cargo trade.
AIRLINE INVESTORS: We will work with Wall Street research analysts to create a separate set of metrics and
a distinct investment class for the air cargo business. We hope that this transparency will create a path for
venture capital and institutional investor funding to enter the air cargo business.
AIR CARGO SHIPPERS/FREIGHT FORWARDERS: We will carefully study the dynamics of each type of air cargo
product and air cargo customer, and promote specialization, branding and product differentiation in the
transportation of each product category. We intend to specialize in end-to-end Temperature-Controlled
Global Transportation Solutions.
MRO’s and PARTS SUPPLIERS: To drive new efficiencies in our business we will explore innovative
maintenance out-sourcing as well as selective use of PMA parts.

THE AMERICAN FRIENDSHIP BUSINESS PLAN

Our business plan is to launch a new ACMI cargo airline based on the 20 year air
cargo market forecast of Boeing and Airbus in the following market segments:

LARGE WIDE BODIES: Using production or converted wide body freighter
aircraft for the long haul markets, including:

B747-400SF’s for our core program
B747-400F’s for very special customers in “high utilization” market
segments
B777 Freighters to provide special economies in Air Freight Travel

MEDIUM WIDE BODIES: Using converted passenger aircraft for the general
freight markets between Europe, Middle East/Africa, North and Latin America.
Our aircraft of choice will include:

B767-200SF/B767-300SF/B757SF's
A330-200F
A300-600RF
A310-300F’s

Both Boeing and Airbus predict that over the next 20 years:

AIR CARGO VOLUMES WILL MORE THAN TRIPLE

OVER 1500 ADDITIONAL FREIGHTERS WILL BE REQUIRED

WIDE-BODIES (SUCH AS B747F AND MD-11’S) WILL REPRESENT 60% OF THE FLEET
AND 90% OF TOTAL CAPACITY

ACMI AS A COMPONENT OF TOTAL AIRFREIGHT WHICH HAS GROWN 21% A YEAR
SINCE 1990 AND NOW COMPRISES OVER 9% OF WORLD AIR CARGO WILL CONTINUE
TO GROW RAPIDLY.
