AVTECH Receives additional options contract in the Dubai Wake Vortex Analysis Project


AVTECH Sweden AB (publ) (“AVTECH”) today announces that it has received a
contract through its associated company AVTECH Middle East LLC to execute an
additional options expansion of the previously communicated primary contract
with Dubai Air Navigation Services (“DANS”) on Wake Vortex. AVTECH’s value of
the options expansion is approximately 1.25 MSEK during three months.
DANS is through this contract further expanding the already awarded and
announced primary contract with its executed options, expected to end during Q4
2014. The expansion involves the inclusion of a third wake vortex LIDAR (Light
Detection and Ranging) system into the overall project. DANS overall objective
is to increase the capacity at Dubai International Airport with at least 10
landings per hour in peak hours.

“It is impressive to see how the actors at Dubai International Airport are
pursuing capacity and safety at the airport, in which the installation of a
third LIDAR is a part”, says Anders Palm, AVTECH’s Business Unit Director of
Consultancy. “The LIDAR-analysis and correlations done during the project shows
that the AVTECH Wake Vortex solutions and analysis methods are fit for the
purpose, and I think that this is acknowledged by AVTECH now being contracted
for the third LIDAR work”, finishes Anders Palm.

“The ongoing assignment in Dubai is a commercial activity that fits well with
the development and potential implementation of a wake vortex system to help
solve capacity and safety needs at a number of airports around the world”, says
Lars GV Lindberg, the Chairman of Board of AVTECH. “Utilizing several of the
building blocks that are operationally in use in AVTECH’s Aventus NowCast
solution, in addition to a number of wake specific modules that have been
developed by a great team of engineers and operational experts with the
financial support of the Swedish Governmental Agency for Innovation Systems -
VINNOVA, a potential long-term wake vortex system is currently being assessed at
a Proof of Concept level. Though having a promising outlook based on the Dubai
Wake Vortex Analysis project, it is still too early to draw any definitive
conclusions of the assessment”, finishes Lars GV Lindberg.
