				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Mission Overview</h3>
<p>Constellation-1 is the first mission of the Constellation Program and the second launch of the Titan-34D launch vehicle. This mission will also serve as the first operational test of the complete Titan-34 launch vehicle stack which will include the Centaur-D uppersage that will be used in the future to launch payloads to earth orbit or on lunar and/or interplanetary voyages. For the Constellation program, the Centaur-D will be the upperstage of choice to launch all 27 GPS/Telecommunication satellites into various orbits.</p>
<p><span id="more-1305"></span></p>
<p>Following the end of the C1 mission, all telemetry data will be studied and reviewed, and once deemed satisfactory, the first Constellation GPS and telecommunications satellite will be handed over to the Constellation mission control operations center for monitoring.</p>
<h3>Support Facilities and Logistics</h3>
<p><strong>Production and Manufacturing</strong></p>
<p>The Titan-34D production factory is located in Denver, Colorado by the Martin Marietta Corporation (now known as Lockheed Martin). This facility has the capability of producing 40 Titan launch vehicles per year.</p>
<p><strong>Launch Preparation and Launch Facilities</strong></p>
<p>Upon completion of each Titan-34D stack, it will be ferried over to Cape Canaveral Air Force Station &#8211; Launch Complex 40 for preparation and launch. Titan vehicle processing is accomplished at the Titan Integrate, Transfer, and Launch (ITL) facility, a complex designed with a number of advantages over other launch systems, including quick reaction time, vehicle modifications, and vehicle launch rates. This facility eliminates the necessity for vehicles to occupy the launch pad for long time periods before launch. The ITL consists of the vertical integration building (VIB), the solid rocket motor assembly building (SMAB), solid motor assembly and readiness building (SMARF), the tank car holding area (TCHA), the motor inert storage building (MISB), and receiving areas, and Launch Complexes 40 and 41. The complexes are designed for a &#8220;high&#8221; launch rate and are believed that a launch rate of 18 to 20 Titan-34D missions per year is technically achievable at CCAFS if the above areas are worked extensively.</p>
<p><strong>Launch Vehicle and Payload Transport</strong></p>
<p>Titan-34D logistics including spacecraft, launch vehicle stages and components, tracking systems, supplies, and personnel in support of planned, ongoing, or complete spaceflight missions will be handled by the UASO&#8217;s Flight Research Division. All logistics necessities to support all Titan-34D missions will be communicated between appointed UASO liaisons.</p>
<h3>Mission Review in Brief</h3>
<p>As stated in the aforementioned, the Constellation-1 mission will launch the first GPS/Telecommunications satellite in the planned Constellation satellite system. Preparation and launch of the Titan-34D will be responsibility of the launch crew. Following the successful completion of the mission, all telemetry data and satellite information will be reviewed and the satellite will be handed over to the Constellation Mission Control Operations Center located at the Oberth Unmanned Systems Research Center in Cleveland, Ohio.</p>
<h3>Mission Timeline (Daily View)</h3>
<p>December 30 &amp; 31 &#8211; Titan-34D SRM&#8217;s and core stages and Boeing 702 bus GPS satellite transport to CCAFS &#8211; Launch Complex 40</p>
<p>January 12 &#8211; Titan-34D launch vehicle processing complete</p>
<p>January 13 &#8211; Constellation-1 Titan-34D stack roll-out to Launch Complex 40 launch pad</p>
<p>January 20 &#8211; Launch of Constellation-1</p>
<p>January 21 &#8211; Completion of Constellation-1 mission</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>City Flyer is the entry point into LAUSA AIR and requires all pilots who join LAUSA AIR to spend the first 50 hours of their virtual career on regional hops between cities. After 25 our pilots are eligible for promotion to First Officer and transfer from the Dash 8 onto the CRJ 700. Pilots are only allowed to fly routes from KMCO which is the hub for City Flyer. With the launch of London City, City Flyer will be flying to all major European cities and City Flyers’ CEO Anthony Tester is currently negotiating code sharing terms for City Flyer Europe with LAUSA AIR’s European alliance partner FLOCK AIR.<span id="more-982"></span>President of LAUSA, Daniel Harvey recently appointed Anthony Tester as CEO of CITY FLYER to oversee the induction and pilot training for all City Flyer Aircrew. Anthony is a real world pilot operating the Dash 8 for Austrian Airlines and is based in Vienna.</p>
<p>This restructure has benefited LAUSA AIR/City Flyer as a whole with pilot retention currently at 90%. Pilots join LAUSA Air as fully trained pilots able to fly IFR and read instrument approach charts in a competent and professional manner expected of all LAUSA AIR pilots.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Opening day for SkyBus was a success. Yesterday morning at approximately 9:00am Skybus plane SX522 pushed from its gate bound for Richmond Va. <span id="more-847"></span>Once the plane landed in Richmond, SX522 parked at its gate, the pilots and crew made a turnaround time of 30 minutes, then headed back to the Buckeye nation. &#8220;It was amazing to see, feel and hear your plane push back and know we are going to make a difference in the VA World&#8221; says CEO Justin Caughenbaugh, also Captain of the flight.</p>
<p>Once the initial flight was made, the A319 then carried passengers to Greensboro NC and back with a turnaround time of 23 minutes.</p>
<p>As the new era of Skybus VA is here we had a chance to speak with one of the passengers on board and this is what she said. &#8220;I wanted to thank you so much for the great flight I just flew from Greensboro NC to Port Columbus OH and I loved the flight. Everyone was great, I can not wait to fly again with you all. Keep up the great work&#8221;.</p>
<p>Joe Poston, the CFO and also First Officer of the flights reported, &#8220;The current earnings with two aircraft flying on opening day and carrying 932 passengers made a whopping $208,380.00.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;It is a very good feeling to this amount on two planes that went to two destinations, just think what <a href="http://www.skybusva.com/" target="_blank">Skybus</a> Va’s profit is going to be when all 65 planes are in action and to all destinations.&#8221; Says Justin.</p>
