CAE certifies worldwide training centres under a single Type Rating Training Organization (TRTO)
September 30, 2008
Montreal, September 30, 2008 – (NYSE: CGT; TSX: CAE) – CAE announced that five of its worldwide training centres have been certified under one Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) TRTO certificate, ensuring smoother regulatory transitions for CAE’s clients across the CAE global network. CAE’s long term plan is to certify all training centres in its global network.
TRTO certification enables CAE clients to receive the same standardized, high-quality training, utilizing identical course content and training aids, from different CAE training centres across the globe. In addition, certification also simplifies the regulatory process for both CAE and its clients. For example, if the client requires course approval from his regulator for his operating certificate, the approval process only needs to be completed once no matter how many CAE centres the client chooses to train from.
“This is an important milestone for CAE,” said Jeff Roberts, CAE’s Group President, Innovation and Civil Training & Services. “We are a global company, with established training centres in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia. Creating regulatory efficiencies and standardization within our network is essential for our clients to experience the same high-quality training and culture of service excellence CAE is known for, independent of where they choose to train.”
CAE is a world leader in providing simulation and modelling technologies and integrated training solutions for the civil aviation industry and defence forces around the globe. With annual revenues exceeding C$1.4 billion, CAE employs approximately 7,000 people at more than 75 sites and training locations in 20 countries. We have the largest installed base of civil and military full-flight simulators and training devices. Through our global network of 27 civil aviation and military training centres, we train more than 75,000 crewmembers yearly. We also offer modelling and simulation software to various market segments and, through CAE’s professional services division, we assist customers with a wide range of simulation-based needs. www.cae.com
NASA Challenges Students to Design Tools for Moon Rovers
September 30, 2008
WASHINGTON, Sept. 30 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — A new NASA contest
challenges college-level students to design tools or instrument packages
that could be used on the next generation of human-driven moon rovers.
Student will have the opportunity to engage in NASA’s return to the moon by
designing equipment that will help astronauts accomplish tasks on the lunar
surface.
Moon explorers will need to navigate in darkness around the moon’s
south pole and collect lunar regolith, or moon dust, for on-site analysis
and radiation detection. They will need to communicate with Earth, a lunar
outpost and spacecraft orbiting the moon. Moon inhabitants also will
conduct video surveys of the moon’s surface for transmission back to Earth,
and practice rescue and the safe return of astronauts to their outpost from
sorties.
Moon dust has the potential to serve as an on-site resource for
building materials, water and oxygen. However, because of its structure,
the dust can damage space suits, rovers and other equipment. The particles
have sharp, jagged edges and contain microscopic shards of glass. Tool or
instrument designs that can withstand the sharp-edged particles could help
future astronauts and might earn students an internship at a NASA facility.
The contest is open to full-time students enrolled in accredited
post-secondary institution such as universities, colleges, trade schools,
community colleges and professional schools in the United States or its
territories. Individuals or teams may apply, and interdisciplinary teams
from across departments and institutions are encouraged.
NASA plans to invite contest winners to the next set of lunar
technology mission tests planned for the summer or fall of 2009. Paid
internships also are planned as student awards. The contest continues
NASA’s tradition of investing in the nation’s education programs and ties
into the agency’s goal of strengthening NASA and America’s future
workforce.
To participate in the contest, students must submit a notice of intent
to NASA by Dec. 15, 2008, with final papers due May 15, 2009. Specific
details about how participation in the NASA University Design Contest in
Exploration Systems, including submission requirements, can be found on the

Lockheed Martin F-35A Logs 50th Mission; F-35B Prepares for Transition to STOVL Flights
September 30, 2008
FORT WORTH, Texas, Sept. 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — The conventional
takeoff and landing (CTOL) Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) F-35A Lightning II
notched its 50th flight last week in preparation for testing at Edwards Air
Force Base, Calif., while the F-35B short takeoff/vertical landing (STOVL)
variant began a planned modification interval that will lead to STOVL-mode
flight early next year.
In preparation for its deployment to Edwards, the F-35A is conducting a
final series of in-flight refueling tests from its Fort Worth base, having
taken on 12,000 pounds of fuel during a three-hour flight on Thursday,
Sept. 25. Additionally, on Sept. 16, the aircraft flew for the first time
with a full weapons load in its internal bays. The mock-up weapons
duplicate the dimensions and weight of a typical F-35 strike mission
load-out in full stealth configuration: two 2,000-pound Joint Direct Attack
Munitions and two Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missiles.
With more than 5,000 pounds of ordnance in its internal weapons bays,
performance remained strong, with no discernable indication of the
degradation sometimes experienced in current fighters because of
aerodynamic drag. “The acceleration in maximum-afterburner takeoff was very
quick,” said F-35 Chief Test Pilot Jon Beesley. “The climb-out with full
internal weapons carriage was particularly impressive to me. Very pleasant
to see clean-fighter climb rates and angles while carrying a combat load.”
At Edwards Air Force Base, pilots will test the F-35A’s ability to shut
down and restart the engine while airborne.
While AA-1 has been preparing for its Edwards deployment, the STOVL
F-35B has undergone a range of handling-qualities tests, engine-power
transitions from idle to full afterburner, extended its retractable fuel
probe, and opened and closed all of the doors associated with its STOVL
propulsion system. “The aircraft performed exactly as we predicted with the
STOVL doors in their various positions. It has exceeded our expectations in
its 14 flights to date, and this was a key milestone to achieve before
starting vertical flight operations in the next few months,” said Dan
Crowley, Lockheed Martin executive vice president and F-35 program general
manager. The tests validated computer modeling and simulation predictions
and moved the aircraft a step closer to vertical flight early next year.
The F-35B now begins a 12-week modification period for system
evaluations, calibrations and software and hardware updates, including the
installation of the Pratt & Whitney F135 engine that is certified for short
takeoffs, hovers, vertical landings and the full range of STOVL-mode and
conventional flight. The test plan calls for transition to vertical flight
operations in early 2009.
With four System Development and Demonstration aircraft complete and
the remaining 15 in production, Lockheed Martin plans to begin delivering
one F-35 per month, with all SDD aircraft scheduled for completion by late
2009.
Additionally:
— The second F-35B has already transitioned from production to the
flight line and is undergoing ground testing prior to its projected first
flight in early 2009.
— The first structurally optimized F-35A also has entered final
assembly in the recently completed moving assembly line.
— The first F-35 dedicated solely to ground-test activities has tested
structural components to well beyond their designed load limits.
— The program is on schedule to begin delivery of production-model
aircraft to the armed services beginning in 2010.
The F-35 is a supersonic, multi-role, 5th generation stealth fighter.
Three F-35 variants derived from a common design, developed together and
using the same sustainment infrastructure worldwide will replace at least
13 types of aircraft for 11 nations initially, making the Lightning II the
most cost-effective fighter program in history.
Headquartered in Bethesda, Md., Lockheed Martin is a global security
company that employs about 140,000 people worldwide and is principally
engaged in the research, design, development, manufacture, integration and
sustainment of advanced technology systems, products and services. The
corporation reported 2007 sales of $41.9 billion.

Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor Reaches Milestone in Maturity
September 30, 2008
MARIETTA, Ga., Sept. 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — The Lockheed Martin
(NYSE: LMT) F-22 Raptor surpassed more than 50,000 total flight hours in
August while establishing new standards in capability and maturity.
“The F-22 continues to demonstrate the field performance vital to an
operational weapon system,” said Larry Lawson, Lockheed Martin executive
vice president and F-22 general manager. “The fleet reliability measures
are ahead of plan and the force-on-force exercises have shown Raptors
provide the capability to dominate airspace today and in the future.”
Pilots and crews at six U.S. bases achieved this maturity level.
Operational, frontline Raptors are assigned to the 1st Fighter Wing at
Langley AFB, Va.; the 49th Fighter Wing at Holloman AFB, N.M.; and the 3rd
Wing at Elmendorf AFB, Alaska. These units maintain constant readiness
supporting Air Combat and Pacific Air Force Commands.
The Air Force Flight Test Center at Edwards AFB, Calif., tests new F-22
capabilities, most recently releasing a small diameter bomb at supersonic
speed for the first time. Nellis AFB, Nev., hosts two F-22 missions,
operational testing and tactics development, along with Fighter Weapons
School training — the fighter pilot’s “PHD” course. Pilot and crew chief
training is at Tyndall AFB, Fla., with the first basic course students
currently undergoing F-22 certification. Raptors will also be based at
Hickam AFB, Hawaii.
The warfighter has put the Raptor to the test since reaching initial
operational capability in 2005 and full operational capability in 2007.
F-22s have flown in multiple Red Flag events, Northern Edge exercises,
deployed to Kadena Air Base Japan, Andersen Air Force Base (AFB), Guam, and
flown in the Royal International Air Tattoo and the Farnborough Air Show.
In all exercises and demonstrations the Raptor’s world-class capability has
been clearly established.
The Raptor’s stealth, integrated avionics, maneuverability and
supercruise speed (1.5 times the speed of sound without afterburner) give
the F-22 “first-look, first-shot, first-kill” capability.
Lockheed Martin’s F-22 and F-35 aircraft deliver game changing 5th
Generation capabilities designed to defeat current and future threats.
Representing a quantum leap in air-to-air and air-to-ground capabilities
that provide an order of magnitude increase in operational effectiveness
over legacy fighters, the F-22 and F-35 will dominate any foreseeable
threat environment and ensure joint and combined operational flexibility
for years to come.
The F-22 Raptor is built by Lockheed Martin teamed with Boeing and
Pratt & Whitney. Parts and subsystems are provided by approximately 1,000
suppliers in 44 U.S. states. Lockheed Martin has delivered 127 Raptors to
the U.S. Air Force.
Headquartered in Bethesda, Md., Lockheed Martin employs about 140,000
people worldwide and is principally engaged in the research, design,
development, manufacture, integration and sustainment of advanced

Honeywell to Supply 3-D Weather Radar to Airbus; System Provides Vital Information to Help Pilots Avoid Turbulence
September 30, 2008
IntuVue(TM), Honeywell’s Weather Hazard Detection System, is the only
system on the market to provide 3-D capability to help pilots avoid
weather-related turbulence and delays
PHOENIX, Sept. 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Honeywell (NYSE: HON)
announced today Airbus has selected Honeywell’s IntuVue 3-D Advanced
Weather Radar on A320s, A330s and A340s, a contract valued at $300 million,
including aftermarket, over the life of the program. Honeywell’s IntuVue
offers flight crews the ability to detect and avoid previously unforeseen
turbulence, wind shears and dangerous storm activity so they can make more
informed route decisions — thereby increasing passenger comfort and safety
while decreasing weather-related costs due to injuries and aircraft
damages.
Honeywell’s IntuVue weather radar is already standard equipment on the
Airbus A380 and A350 as part of the ground-breaking Aircraft Environment
Surveillance System. Deliveries are planned to start with the single aisle
A320 family (A318, A319. A320, and A321) in the first quarter of 2010 with
the long range A330s and A340s, including freighters, shortly thereafter.
“Weather related delays and damage cost the industry over $4 billion
each year,” said Garrett Mikita, Honeywell’s Air Transport and Regional
President. “With Honeywell’s IntuVue weather radar as standard equipment on
Airbus aircraft, it can significantly reduce operating costs while making
air travel more comfortable and secure. Operators using IntuVue weather
radar are experiencing 50 percent fewer turbulence-related incidents
compared to aircraft equipped with conventional radars.”
Specific turbulence-related injuries cost the airline industry more
than $100 million per year. An aircraft that encounters unexpected severe
turbulence averages a loss of approximately $150,000 to the airline.
Honeywell’s 3-D hazard detection and avoidance system, IntuVue, is the
latest in advanced weather radar technology that enables pilots to see and
avoid turbulence sooner to improve passenger safety and reduce operating
costs for airlines.
IntuVue is the first fully automatic weather radar system certified to
the FAA’s Enhanced Turbulence Detection Minimum Operation Performance
Standard (MOPS) that enables pilots to see and avoid turbulence sooner. It
is the only commercial radar that utilizes pulse compression for greater
accuracy at longer range — a technology used previously only in military
radars. This technology enables improved in-flight decisions by providing
weather analysis tools for viewing storms in three-dimensions at up to 320
nautical miles ahead of the aircraft, which allows for optimum re-routing
around or through weather resulting in an 11 percent reduction in fuel
burn. IntuVue’s slim design and high reliability reduce operating costs by
53 percent, reduce weight by 25 percent and reduce maintenance cost by 30
percent as compared to other commercially available products.
Honeywell’s IntuVue is operating as standard equipment on the Airbus
A380 and the military C-17, and is specified as standard equipment on the
Gulfstream 650 and Airbus A350 when they enter service. It is also
certified and flying on the Boeing 777 and 737NG.
Honeywell International is a $38 billion diversified technology and
manufacturing leader, serving customers worldwide with aerospace products
and services; control technologies for buildings, homes and industry;
automotive products; turbochargers; and specialty materials. Based in
Morris Township, N.J., Honeywell’s shares are traded on the New York,

NASA to Discuss Hubble Anomaly and Servicing Mission Launch Delay
September 30, 2008
WASHINGTON, Sept. 29 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — NASA will host a media
teleconference at 6 p.m. EDT today to discuss a significant Hubble Space
Telescope anomaly that occurred this weekend affecting the storage and
transmittal of science data to Earth. Fixing the problem will delay next
month’s space shuttle Atlantis’ Hubble servicing mission.
The briefing participants are:
– Ed Weiler, associate administrator of the Science Mission Directorate
at NASA Headquarters in Washington
– John Shannon, Shuttle Program manager at NASA’s Johnson Space Center
in Houston
– Preston Burch, Hubble manager at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center
in Greenbelt, Md.
To participate in the teleconference, reporters in the U.S. should call
1-800-369-6087 and use the pass code Hubble. International reporters should
call 1-773-756-0843.
As a result of the launch delay, NASA has postponed the planned Oct. 3
Flight Readiness Review and subsequent news conference. The review will
occur at a later date.
The malfunctioning system is Hubble’s Control Unit/Science Data
Formatter – Side A. Shortly after 8 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 27, the
telescope’s spacecraft computer issued commands to safe the payload
computer and science instruments when errors were detected within the
Science Data Formatter. An attempt to reset the formatter and obtain a dump
of the payload computer’s memory was unsuccessful.
Additional testing demonstrates Side A no longer supports the transfer
of science data to the ground. A transition to the redundant Side B should
restore full functionality to the science instruments and operations.
The transition to Side B operations is complex. It requires that five
other modules used in managing data also be switched to their B-side
systems. The B-sides of these modules last were activated during ground
tests in the late 1980’s and/or early 1990, prior to launch.
The Hubble operations team has begun work on the Side B transition and
believes it will be ready to reconfigure Hubble later this week. The
transition will happen after the team completes a readiness review.
Hubble could return to science operations in the immediate future if
the reconfiguration is successful. Even so, the agency is investigating the
possibility of flying a back-up replacement system, which could be
installed during the servicing mission.
