Upon completion of the PATC facility expansion, the Company's objective is for PATC to offer composite aircraft and space vehicle parts design and assembly services, in addition to "build-to-print" services. The expansion will include both oven and autoclave composite parts curing equipment and capability. When the expansion is complete, PATC plans to be able to offer a full range of advanced composite materials development and manufacturing capability, as well as composite parts design, assembly and production capability, all under one roof. The Company believes that the ability of its PATC facility to offer such a wide and comprehensive array of composite materials and parts manufacturing and development technology and capability to the aircraft and space vehicle industries will provide attractive benefits and advantages to those industries.
