AIR FREIGHT COST REDUCTION

Funding looked for: 3K / month, for 6 months

 

OVERVIEW:

This is an "aero" engineering task to prepare a proposal for the reduction of air freight cost; for overseas and long haul distances.

The plan is to prepare a technical and business overview for reducing freight costs by towing a second aircraft.

There will be a "STOP" after the first month, if the results of the first calculations show an insufficient reduction in costs, to continue with the investigation. Money invested will be transferred to "SHARES" in the Catamaran.

There is a lot of past experience of towed "gliders" during war, carrying heavy loads. Medium size Jet aircraft will be proposed in this case.

This concept will be explored for it's potential merits on savings of:  fuel, operating costs and capital investment.

After an "UNSOLICITED PROPOSAL FOR THE COST REDUCTION OF LONG HAUL AIR-FREIGHT" has been compiled, it will be submitted to the many companies potentially interested. FEDEX, UPS, DHL, USPS,  possibly the military etc.

If a contract to continue with the investigation is awarded, the investor(s) will receive a minimum of double their money back , or, at the investors choice will be transferred to "SHARES" in the Catamaran.

If no contract to continue with the investigation is awarded, the invested funds will be transferred to "SHARES" in the Catamaran.

The compiling of preliminary data will take a considerable effort and time.

Estimated probabilities of receiving an investigative contract:  >medium
