Summary 5
Risk Factors 7
Risks Related To Our Financial Condition and Business Model 7
If we do not obtain additional financing, including the financing sought in this offering, we will be unable to expand our operations and our business may fail. 7
Because we have only recently commenced business operations, we face a higher risk of business failure. 7
Because substantially all of our assets are pledged as collateral to secure our indebtedness, our ability to obtain other loans or working capital lines of credit will be hindered. 7

If our aircraft becomes unavailable for use, we will suffer immediate and substantial harm to our business.

7
If we develop problems with our third-party service provider, our operations could be materially and adversely affected, resulting in a decline in revenue, and increase in expenses, or both.   8

Because our sole officer and director has no prior experience as a chief executive or as the head of a public company, we may be hindered in our ability to efficiently and competitively execute our business strategy and achieve profitability. 

8
Because our auditor has issued a going concern opinion regarding our company, there is an increased risk associated with an investment in our company. 8
Because our offering will be conducted on a best efforts basis, there can be no assurance that we can raise the money we need. 8
Because our president only provides his services on a part-time basis, he may not be able or willing to devote a sufficient amount of time to our business operations, causing our business to fail. 8
Because our president, Mr. Johnson, currently owns 100% of our outstanding common stock, investors may find that corporate decisions made by Mr. Johnson are inconsistent with the best interests of other stockholders. 8
Because we will incur additional costs as the result of becoming a public company, our cash needs will increase and our ability to achieve net profitability may be delayed. 9
Risks Related To Legal Uncertainty 9
If our insurance coverage becomes more expensive or difficult to obtain, we may not be able to carry coverage adequate to insure against all risks. 9
Risks Related To This Offering 9
If a market for our common stock does not develop, shareholders may be unable to sell their shares. 9
Because FINRA sales practice requirements may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock, investors may not be able to sell their stock should they desire to do so. 9
Because state securities laws may limit secondary trading, investors may be restricted as to the states in which they can sell the shares offered by this prospectus. 10
Because we do not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future, investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock. 10
Because we will be subject to the “Penny Stock” rules, the level of trading activity in our stock may be reduced. 10
If our shares are quoted on the over-the-counter bulletin board, we will be required to remain current in our filings with the SEC and our securities will not be eligible for quotation if we are not current in our filings with the SEC. 11
Because purchasers in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of their common stock, you may experience difficulty recovering the value of your investment. 11
If we undertake future offerings of our common stock, purchasers in this offering will experience dilution of their ownership percentage. 11

Summary

 

General Aircraft, Inc.

 

The Company

 

We were incorporated as General Aircraft, Inc. on August 9, 2011 in the State of Nevada for the purpose of owning and operating helicopters for use in sightseeing tours and as pilot training aircraft. We have procured our first helicopter and have placed it into service in the Las Vegas, Nevada area. We are seeking funding to finance the purchase of an additional aircraft and for working capital. We are a development stage company and have only recently begun to generate revenues.

 

As of August 31, 2011, we had $10,000 in current assets and current liabilities in the amount of $7,923. Accordingly, we had working capital of $2,077 as of August 31, 2011. Our current working capital is not sufficient to enable us to implement our business plan as set forth in this prospectus.  In addition, we have not established consistent revenues from our operations and may be required to seek additional financing. We currently do not have any arrangements for financing and we may not be able to obtain financing when required.  For these and other reasons, our independent auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, we will require additional financing, including the equity funding sought in this prospectus.

 

We are offering for sale to investors a maximum of 3,500,000 shares of our common stock at an offering price of $0.01 per share (the “Offering”). Our business plan is to use the proceeds of this offering for working capital and certain expenses, and to help finance our purchase of an additional aircraft. The minimum investment amount for a single investor is $400 for 40,000 shares.  The shares are being offered by us on a “best efforts” basis and there can be no assurance that all or any of the shares offered will be subscribed.  If less than the maximum proceeds are available to us, our development and prospects could be adversely affected.  There is no minimum offering required for this offering to close. The proceeds of this offering will be immediately available to us for our general business purposes. The Maximum Offering amount is 3,500,000 shares ($35,000).

 

Our address is 5389 Golden Barrel Ave., Las Vegas, NV 89141. Our phone number is (702) 637-8536.  Our fiscal year end is August 31.

Minimum Number of Shares To Be Sold in This Offering n/a
Maximum Number of Shares To Be Sold in This Offering 3,500,000

Number of Shares Outstanding After The Offering If All The Shares Are Sold 13,500,000

Risk Factors

 

You should consider each of the following risk factors and any other information set forth herein and in our reports filed with the SEC, including our financial statements and related notes, in evaluating our business and prospects. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones that impact on our operations and business. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently consider immaterial, may also impair our business or operations. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business and financial results or prospects could be harmed. In that case, the value of the Common Stock could decline.

 

Risks Related To Our Financial Condition and Business Model

 

If we do not obtain additional financing, including the financing sought in this offering, we will be unable to expand our operations and our business may fail.

 

We have only recently commenced active operations and have only recently begun to generate revenues from operations. Our business plan calls for certain operating and professional expenses and for the planned purchase of an additional aircraft in order to expand our revenue base. We have budgeted approximately $20,000 for use as a down payment on an additional aircraft. In addition, we will need to maintain funds in reserve for aircraft overhaul and extraordinary maintenance expenses and will need to pay ongoing legal and accounting expenses. As of August 31, 2011, we had cash on hand in the amount of $10,000 and working capital in the amount of $2,077.  Accordingly, we will be unable to expand our business through the purchase of additional aircraft if we are unable to successfully complete this Offering at or near the maximum offering amount.  In addition, although the operation of our recently-acquired helicopter is expected to generate positive cash flow on a monthly basis, we will faced an enhanced likelihood of business failure if a portion of the funds sought in this offering are not available to help ameliorate our anticipated operating costs. We currently do not have any arrangements for financing and we may not be able to obtain financing when required. Obtaining additional financing beyond the initial equity financing sought through this offering will be subject to a number of factors, including our ability to show strong early revenues and sustained revenue growth.  These factors may make the most desirable timing, amount, and terms or conditions of additional financing unavailable to us.

 

Because we have only recently commenced business operations, we face a higher risk of business failure.

 

We commenced operations in August of 2011, have only recently procured our first helicopter, and have only recently begun to generate revenue from use of our helicopter for tours and pilot training flights. Because we do not have an established track record of profitable helicopter ownership and operations, we can provide no assurance that we will be able to generate significant revenues or sustained net profits and we face a high risk of business failure.

 

Because substantially all of our assets are pledged as collateral to secure our indebtedness, our ability to obtain other loans or working capital lines of credit will be hindered.

 

Our helicopter comprises nearly the entirety of our assets and it is secured by a first-position lien in favor of the purchase money lender. Accordingly, if an event of default were to occur under our secured aircraft loan, the lender would have a priority right to the helicopter, to the exclusion of our general creditors. The pledge of our primary asset will likely limit our ability to incur additional secured or unsecured indebtedness, to enter into a line of credit to support our working capital needs, or to sell or dispose of assets to raise capital, which could have an adverse effect on our financial flexibility.

 

If our aircraft becomes unavailable for use, we will suffer immediate and substantial harm to our business.

 

We are currently dependent upon a single aircraft in order to maintain revenue-generating operations. Thus is, if our helicopter becomes unavailable due to unscheduled maintenance, repairs or other reasons, we will suffer an immediate and potentially substantial interruption of our ability to generate revenues and maintain ongoing operations.

Table of Contents

If we develop problems with our third-party service provider, our operations could be materially and adversely affected, resulting in a decline in revenue, increase in expenses, or both.

 

We rely upon a third party manager, Elite Aviation VGT, LLC, to provide essential services on behalf of our operations, including aircraft maintenance, ground facilities operations, and other services. In addition, Elite Aviation VGT, LLC will responsible for booking use of our helicopter for tours and pilot training flights and collecting the revenues of such activities on our behalf. Any material problems related to the operations of our third-party service provider, or any significant disruption in our relationship with the provider, could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Because our sole officer and director has no prior experience as a chief executive or as the head of a public company, we may be hindered in our ability to efficiently and competitively execute our business strategy and achieve profitability.

 

Our sole officer and director, Mr. Johnson, lacks any prior experience as a company chief executive.  In addition, Mr. Johnson has no experience managing a publicly reporting company.  Accordingly, Mr. Johnson will be less effective than more experienced managers in efficiently managing our ongoing regulatory compliance obligations and in dealing with such matters as public relations, investor relations, and corporate governance.

 

Because our auditor has issued a going concern opinion regarding our company, there is an increased risk associated with an investment in our company.

 

We earned no revenue from inception through August 31, 2011, which makes it difficult to evaluate whether we will operate profitably.  We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing or generating revenue from operations to continue operations for the immediate future. As of August 31, 2011, we had cash in the amount of $10,000. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain financing or upon future profitable operations.  We are currently seeking equity financing through this offering. We reserve the right to seek additional funds through private placements of our common stock and/or through debt financing. Our ability to raise additional financing is unknown. We do not have any formal commitments or arrangements for the advancement or loan of funds. For these reasons, our auditors stated in their report that they have substantial doubt we will be able to continue as a going concern. As a result, there is an increased risk that you could lose the entire amount of your investment in our company.

 

Because our offering will be conducted on a best efforts basis, there can be no assurance that we can raise the money we need.

 

The shares are being offered by us on a "best efforts" basis without benefit of a private placement agent. We can provide no assurance that this Offering will be completely sold out. If less than the maximum proceeds are available, our business plans and prospects for the current fiscal year could be adversely affected.

 

Because our president only provides his services on a part-time basis, he may not be able or willing to devote a sufficient amount of time to our business operations, causing our business to fail.

 

Mr. Johnson, our founder and sole officer and director, currently devotes 10 to 15 hours per week to our business affairs.  If the demands of our business require the full business time of Mr. Johnson, it is possible that he may not be able to devote sufficient time to the management of our business, as and when needed.  If our management is unable to devote a sufficient amount of time to manage our operations, our business will fail.

 

Because our president, Mr. Johnson, currently owns 100% of our outstanding common stock, investors may find that corporate decisions made by Mr. Johnson are inconsistent with the best interests of other stockholders.

 

Mr. Johnson is our president, chief financial officer and sole director. He currently owns 100% of the outstanding shares of our common stock, and, upon completion of this offering, will own 74% of our outstanding common stock if the maximum number of shares is sold. Accordingly, he will have control over the outcome of all corporate transactions or other matters, and also the power to prevent or cause a change in control. The views and interests of Mr. Johnson, as controlling shareholder, may differ from the interests of the other stockholders.

Table of Contents


Because we will incur additional costs as the result of becoming a public company, our cash needs will increase and our ability to achieve net profitability may be delayed.

 

Upon effectiveness of our Registration Statement for the Offering, we will become a publicly reporting company and will be required to stay current in our filings with the SEC, including, but not limited to, quarterly and annual reports, current reports on materials events, and other filings that may be required from time to time.  We believe that, as a public company, our ongoing filings with the SEC will benefit shareholders in the form of greater transparency regarding our business activities and results of operations.   In becoming a public company, however, we will incur additional costs in the form of audit and accounting fees and legal fees for the professional services necessary to assist us in remaining current in our reporting obligations.  We expect that, during our first year of operations following the effectiveness of our Registration Statement, we will incur additional costs for professional fees in the approximate amount of $12,000.  These additional costs will increase our cash needs and may hinder or delay our ability to achieve net profitability even after we have begun to generate revenues on a regular basis.

 

Risks Related To Legal Uncertainty

 

If our insurance coverage becomes more expensive or difficult to obtain, we may not be able to carry coverage adequate to insure against all risks.

 

Aviation insurance premiums historically have fluctuated based on factors that include the loss history of the industry in general, and the insured carrier in particular. Future terrorist attacks, accidents and other adverse events involving aircraft could result in increases in insurance costs and could affect the price and availability of such coverage. There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our existing coverage on terms favorable to us, that the premiums for such coverage will not increase substantially or that we will not bear substantial losses and lost revenue from accidents or other adverse events. Substantial claims resulting from an accident in excess of related insurance coverage or a significant increase in our current insurance expense could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 

 

Risks Related To This Offering

 

If a market for our common stock does not develop, shareholders may be unable to sell their shares.

 

Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our securities and there can be no assurance that an active trading market for the securities offered herein will develop after this offering, or, if developed, be sustained. We anticipate that, upon completion of this offering, the common stock will be eligible for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board. If for any reason, however, our securities are not eligible for initial or continued quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board or a public trading market does not develop, purchasers of the common stock may have difficulty selling their securities should they desire to do so and purchasers of our common stock may lose their entire investment if they are unable to sell our securities.

 

Because FINRA sales practice requirements may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock, investors may not be able to sell their stock should they desire to do so .

 

In addition to the "penny stock" rules described below, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in our common stock. As a result, fewer broker-dealers may be willing to make a market in our common stock, reducing a stockholder's ability to resell shares of our common stock.

9
Table of Contents

 

Because state securities laws may limit secondary trading, investors may be restricted as to the states in which they can sell the shares offered by this prospectus.

 

If you purchase shares of our common stock sold in this offering, you may not be able to resell the shares in any state unless and until the shares of our common stock are qualified for secondary trading under the applicable securities laws of such state or there is confirmation that an exemption, such as listing in certain recognized securities manuals, is available for secondary trading in such state. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in registering or qualifying our common stock for secondary trading, or identifying an available exemption for secondary trading in our common stock in every state. If we fail to register or qualify, or to obtain or verify an exemption for the secondary trading of, our common stock in any particular state, the shares of common stock could not be offered or sold to, or purchased by, a resident of that state. In the event that a significant number of states refuse to permit secondary trading in our common stock, the market for the common stock will be limited which could drive down the market price of our common stock and reduce the liquidity of the shares of our common stock and a stockholder's ability to resell shares of our common stock at all or at current market prices, which could increase a stockholder's risk of losing some or all of his investment.

 

Because we do not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future, investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock.

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business. As a result, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Our payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors after taking into account various factors, including but not limited to our financial condition, operating results, cash needs, growth plans and the terms of any credit agreements that we may be a party to at the time. Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of their own common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize their investment. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock.

 

Because we will be subject to the “Penny Stock” rules, the level of trading activity in our stock may be reduced.

 

Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks” are regulated by penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on some national securities exchanges or quoted on Nasdaq). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, broker-dealers who sell these securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. Consequently, these requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security subject to the penny stock rules, and investors in our common stock may find it difficult to sell their shares.

Table of Contents

 

If our shares are quoted on the over-the-counter bulletin board, we will be required to remain current in our filings with the SEC and our securities will not be eligible for quotation if we are not current in our filings with the SEC.

 

In the event that our shares are quoted on the over-the-counter bulletin board,   we will be required order to remain current in our filings with the SEC in order for shares of our common stock to be eligible for quotation on the over-the-counter bulletin board. In the event that we become delinquent in our required filings with the SEC, quotation of our common stock will be terminated following a 30 day grace period if we do not make our required filing during that time. If our shares are not eligible for quotation on the over-the-counter bulletin board, investors in our common stock may find it difficult to sell their shares.

 

Because purchasers in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of their common stock, you may experience difficulty recovering the value of your investment.

 

Purchasers of our securities in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of their common stock from the initial public offering price.  Dilution in net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of shares of our common stock in this offering and the pro forma net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately following this offering.  The dilution experienced by investors in this offering will result in a net tangible book value per share that is less than the offering price of $0.01 per share.  Such dilution may depress the value of the company’s common stock and make it more difficult to recover the value of your investment in a timely manner should you chose sell your shares.

 

If we undertake future offerings of our common stock, purchasers in this offering will experience dilution of their ownership percentage.

 

Generally, existing shareholders will experience dilution of their ownership percentage in the company if and when additional shares of common stock are offered and sold.  In the future, we may be required to seek additional equity funding in the form of private or public offerings of our common stock.  In the event that we undertake subsequent offerings of common stock, your ownership percentage, voting power as a common shareholder, and earnings per share, if any, will be proportionately diluted.  This may, in turn, result in a substantial decrease in the per-share value of your common stock.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  We use words such as anticipate, believe, plan, expect, future, intend and similar expressions to identify such forward-looking statements.  The actual results could differ materially from our forward-looking statements.  Our actual results are most likely to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the risks faced by us described in this Risk Factors section and elsewhere in this prospectus.

1 Commissions : Shares will be offered and sold by us without special compensation or other remuneration for such efforts. We do not plan to enter into agreements with finders or securities broker-dealers whereby the finders or broker-dealers would be involved in the sale of the Shares to the investors. Shares will be sold directly by us, and no fee or commission will be paid.

 

2 Materials and equipment : We intend to use approximately $20,000 of the net proceeds of this Offering to acquire an additional aircraft. This figure represents a 15% down payment.

 

3 Working capital :  We intend to use approximately $10,000 of the net proceeds of this Offering for general working capital purposes. These funds will be used primarily to contribute to our reserve against overhaul and other extraordinary maintenance and repair costs.

 

4 Legal and accounting :  A portion of the proceeds will be used to pay legal, accounting, and related compliance costs. We expect to pay the remainder of our current and anticipated legal and accounting costs from a combination of cash on hand and net revenues from the operation of our helicopter.

In the event that less than the maximum number of shares is sold we anticipate application of the proceeds we will receive from this Offering, in order of priority, will be as follows:

GROSS OFFERING $ 26,250 100.0 % $ 17,500 100.0 % $ 8,750 100.0 %

In the event that substantially less than the maximum offering is received, we intend to delay our planned purchase of an additional aircraft until such time that we accumulate sufficient cash from retained earnings and/or additional equity financing, to make the down payment necessary to fund the purchase.

 

Determination of Offering Price

 

The $0.01 per share offering price of our common stock was arbitrarily chosen by management. There is no relationship between this price and our assets, earnings, book value or any other objective criteria of value.

 

Dilution

 

Purchasers of our securities in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of their common stock from the initial public offering price.

 

The historical net tangible book value as of August 31, 2011 was $1,765 or $0.0001765 per share. Historical net tangible book value per share of common stock is equal to our total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of common stock outstanding as of August 31, 2011.   Adjusted to give effect to the receipt of net proceeds from the sale of the maximum of 3,500,000 shares of common stock for $35,000, net tangible book value will be approximately $0.0027233 per share.  This will represent an immediate increase of approximately $0.0025468 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate and substantial dilution of approximately $0.00727670 per share, or approximately 73%, to new investors purchasing our securities in this offering. Dilution in pro forma net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of shares of our common stock in this offering and the pro forma net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately following this offering.

New Investors 3,500,000 26 % $ 35,000

Plan Of Distribution, Terms Of The Offering

 

There Is No Current Market for Our Shares of Common Stock

 

There is currently no market for our shares. We cannot give you any assurance that the shares you purchase will ever have a market or that if a market for our shares ever develops, that you will be able to sell your shares. In addition, even if a public market for our shares develops, there is no assurance that a secondary public market will be sustained.

 

The shares you purchase are not traded or listed on any exchange. After the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, we intend to have a market maker file an application with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority to have our common stock quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. We currently have no market maker who is willing to list quotations for our stock. Further, even assuming we do locate such a market maker, it could take several months before the market maker’s listing application for our shares is approved.

 

The OTC Bulletin Board is maintained by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. The securities traded on the Bulletin Board are not listed or traded on the floor of an organized national or regional stock exchange. Instead, these securities transactions are conducted through a telephone and computer network connecting dealers in stocks. Over-the-counter stocks are traditionally smaller companies that do not meet the financial and other listing requirements of a regional or national stock exchange.

 

Even if our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, a purchaser of our shares may not be able to resell the shares. Broker-dealers may be discouraged from effecting transactions in our shares because they will be considered penny stocks and will be subject to the penny stock rules. Rules 15g-1 through 15g-9 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, impose sales practice and disclosure requirements on FINRA brokers-dealers who make a market in a "penny stock." A penny stock generally includes any non-NASDAQ equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. Under the penny stock regulations, a broker-dealer selling penny stock to anyone other than an established customer or "accredited investor" (generally, an individual with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or an annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with his or her spouse) must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and must receive the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to sale, unless the broker-dealer or the transactions is otherwise exempt. In addition, the penny stock regulations require the broker-dealer to deliver, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise exempt. A broker-dealer is also required to disclose commissions payable to the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, a broker-dealer is required to send monthly statements disclosing recent price information with respect to the penny stock held in a customer's account and information with respect to the limited market in penny stocks.

 

The additional sales practice and disclosure requirements imposed upon brokers-dealers may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our shares, which could severely limit the market liquidity of the shares and impede the sale of our shares in the secondary market, assuming one develops.

The Offering will be Sold by Our Officer and Director

 

We are offering up to a total of 3,500,000 shares of common stock. The offering price is $0.01 per share. The offering will be for a period of 120 days from the effective date and may be extended for an additional 90 days if we choose to do so. In our sole discretion, we have the right to terminate the offering at any time, even before we have sold the 3,500,000 shares. There are no specific events which might trigger our decision to terminate the offering.

 

The shares are being offered by us on a “best efforts” basis and there can be no assurance that all or any of the shares offered will be subscribed.  If less than the maximum proceeds are available to us, our development and prospects could be adversely affected.  There is no minimum offering required for this offering to close. All funds received as a result of this offering will be immediately available to us for our general business purposes.

 

We cannot assure you that all or any of the shares offered under this prospectus will be sold. No one has committed to purchase any of the shares offered. Therefore, we may sell only a nominal amount of shares, in which case our ability to execute our business plan might be negatively impacted. We reserve the right to withdraw or cancel this offering and to accept or reject any subscription in whole or in part, for any reason or for no reason. Subscriptions will be accepted or rejected promptly. All monies from rejected subscriptions will be returned immediately by us to the subscriber, without interest or deductions. Certificates for shares purchased will be issued and distributed by our transfer agent promptly after a subscription is accepted and "good funds" are received in our account.

 

If it turns out that we have not raised enough money to effectuate our business plan, we will try to raise additional funds from a second public offering, a private placement or loans. At the present time, we have not made any plans to raise additional money and there is no assurance that we would be able to raise additional money in the future. If we need additional money and are not successful, we will have to suspend or cease operations.

 

We will sell the shares in this offering through our officer and director. The officer and Director engaged in the sale of the securities will receive no commission from the sale of the shares nor will he register as broker-dealers pursuant to Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in reliance upon Rule 3(a) 4-1. Rule 3(a) 4-1 sets forth those conditions under which a person associated with an issuer may participate in the offering of the issuer's securities and not be deemed to be a broker-dealer. Our officer and director satisfies the requirements of Rule 3(a) 4-1 in that:

 

1. They are not subject to a statutory disqualification, as that term is defined in Section 3(a)(39) of the Act, at the time of his or her participation; and
2. They are not compensated in connection with their participation by the payment of commissions or other remuneration based either directly or indirectly on transactions in securities; and
3. They are not, at the time of their participation, an associated person of a broker- dealer; and
4. They meet the conditions of Paragraph (a)(4)(ii) of Rule 3(a)4-1 of the Exchange Act, in that they (A) primarily perform, or are intended primarily to perform at the end of the offering, substantial duties for or on behalf of the issuer otherwise than in connection with transactions in securities; and (B) are not brokers or dealers, or an associated person of a broker or dealer, within the preceding twelve (12) months; and (C) do not participate in selling and offering of securities for any issuer more than once every twelve (12) months other than in reliance on Paragraphs (a)(4)(i) or (a)(4)(iii).

 

As long as we satisfy all of these conditions, we are comfortable that we will be able to satisfy the requirements of Rule 3(a)4-1 of the Exchange Act.

 

As our officer and director will sell the shares being offered pursuant to this offering, Regulation M prohibits the Company and its officer and director from certain types of trading activities during the time of distribution of our securities. Specifically, Regulation M prohibits our officer and director from bidding for or purchasing any common stock or attempting to induce any other person to purchase any common stock, until the distribution of our securities pursuant to this offering has ended.

Description of Securities

 

Our authorized capital stock consists of 90,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share.   As of the date of this Prospectus, there were 10,000,000 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.  Our shares are currently held by one (1) stockholder of record. We have not issued any shares of preferred stock.

 

Common Stock

 

Our common stock is entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. Except as otherwise required by law or provided in any resolution adopted by our board of directors with respect to any series of preferred stock, the holders of our common stock will possess all voting power. Generally, all matters to be voted on by stockholders must be approved by a majority (or, in the case of election of directors, by a plurality) of the votes entitled to be cast by all shares of our common stock that are present in person or represented by proxy, subject to any voting rights granted to holders of any preferred stock. Holders of our common stock representing fifty percent (50%) of our capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of our stockholders.  A vote by the holders of a majority of our outstanding shares is required to effectuate certain fundamental corporate changes such as liquidation, merger or an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation. Our Articles of Incorporation do not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.

 

Subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock created by  our board of directors from time to time, the holders of shares of our common stock will be entitled to such cash dividends as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors from funds available therefore.

 

Subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock created from time to time by our board of directors, upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of shares of our common stock will be entitled to receive pro rata all assets available for distribution to such holders.

 

16
Table of Contents

 

In the event of any merger or consolidation with or into another company in connection with which shares of our common stock are converted into or exchangeable for shares of stock, other securities or property (including cash), all holders of our common stock will be entitled to receive the same kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property (including cash). Holders of our common stock have no pre-emptive rights, no conversion rights and there are no redemption provisions applicable to our common stock.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Our board of directors may become authorized to authorize preferred shares of stock and to divide the authorized shares of our preferred stock into one or more series, each of which must be so designated as to distinguish the shares of each series of preferred stock from the shares of all other series and classes. Our board of directors is authorized, within any limitations prescribed by law and our articles of incorporation, to fix and determine the designations, rights, qualifications, preferences, limitations and terms of the shares of any series of preferred stock including, but not limited to, the following:

 

1. The number of shares constituting that series and the distinctive designation of that series, which may be by distinguishing number, letter or title;

 

2. The dividend rate on the shares of that series, whether dividends will be cumulative, and if so, from which date(s), and the relative rights of priority, if any, of payment of dividends on shares of that series;

 

3. Whether that series will have voting rights, in addition to the voting rights provided by law, and, if so, the terms of such voting rights;

 

4. Whether that series will have conversion privileges, and, if so, the terms and conditions of such conversion, including provision for adjustment of the conversion rate in such events as the Board of Directors determines;

 

5. Whether or not the shares of that series will be redeemable, and, if so, the terms and conditions of such redemption, including the date or date upon or after which they are redeemable, and the amount per share payable in case of redemption, which amount may vary under different conditions and at different redemption dates;

 

6. Whether that series will have a sinking fund for the redemption or purchase of shares of that series, and, if so, the terms and amount of such sinking fund;

 

7. The rights of the shares of that series in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the corporation, and the relative rights of priority, if any, of payment of shares of that series;

 

8. Any other relative rights, preferences and limitations of that series

 

Provisions in Our Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws That Would Delay, Defer or Prevent a Change in Control

 

Our articles of incorporation authorize our board of directors to issue a class of preferred stock commonly known as a "blank check" preferred stock. Specifically, the preferred stock may be issued from time to time by the board of directors as shares of one (1) or more classes or series. Our board of directors, subject to the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and limitations imposed by law, is authorized to adopt resolutions; to issue the shares; to fix the number of shares; to change the number of shares constituting any series; and to provide for or change the following: the voting powers; designations; preferences; and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, qualifications, limitations or restrictions, including the following: dividend rights, including whether dividends are cumulative; dividend rates; terms of redemption, including sinking fund provisions; redemption prices; conversion rights and liquidation preferences of the shares constituting any class or series of the preferred stock.

 

17
Table of Contents

 

In each such case, we will not need any further action or vote by our shareholders. One of the effects of undesignated preferred stock may be to enable the board of directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a tender offer, proxy contest, merger or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of our management. The issuance of shares of preferred stock pursuant to the board of director's authority described above may adversely affect the rights of holders of common stock. For example, preferred stock issued by us may rank prior to the common stock as to dividend rights, liquidation preference or both, may have full or limited voting rights and may be convertible into shares of common stock. Accordingly, the issuance of shares of preferred stock may discourage bids for the common stock at a premium or may otherwise adversely affect the market price of the common stock.

 

Dividend Policy

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock.  We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business. As a result, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

Share Purchase Warrants

 

We have not issued and do not have outstanding any warrants to purchase shares of our common stock.

 

Options

 

We have not issued and do not have outstanding any options to purchase shares of our common stock.

 

Convertible Securities

 

We have not issued and do not have outstanding any securities convertible into shares of our common stock or any rights convertible or exchangeable into shares of our common stock.

 

Nevada Anti-Takeover Laws

 

Nevada Revised Statutes sections 78.378 to 78.379 provide state regulation over the acquisition of a controlling interest in certain Nevada corporations unless the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the corporation provide that the provisions of these sections do not apply.  Our articles of incorporation and bylaws do not state that these provisions do not apply.  The statute creates a number of restrictions on the ability of a person or entity to acquire control of a Nevada company by setting down certain rules of conduct and voting restrictions in any acquisition attempt, among other things. The statute is limited to corporations that are organized in the state of Nevada and that have 200 or more stockholders, at least 100 of whom are stockholders of record and residents of the State of Nevada; and does business in the State of Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation. Because of these conditions, the statute currently does not apply to our company.

Description of Business

 

Principal Place of Business

 

Our principal offices are located at 5389 Golden Barrel Ave., Las Vegas, NV 89141. Our sole officer and director provides office services at this location free of charge.

 

Company Overview

 

We were incorporated as General Aircraft, Inc. on August 9, 2011 in the State of Nevada for the purpose of owning and operating helicopters for use in sightseeing tours and as pilot training aircraft. We have procured our first helicopter and have placed it into service in the Las Vegas, Nevada area. We are seeking funding to finance the purchase of an additional aircraft for working capital. We are a development stage company and have only recently begun to generate revenues. Our current working capital is not sufficient to enable us to implement our business plan as set forth in this prospectus. Accordingly, we will require additional financing, including the equity funding sought in this prospectus.

 

We purchased our first helicopter, a Robinson R44 Raven II, in August of 2011 at a cost of $212,500. The helicopter seats three passengers in addition to the pilot. Our purchase was financed in full by a secured, purchase-money loan. The helicopter is hangered at North Las Vegas Airport, an executive and general aviation airport in North Las Vegas, Nevada. Through our third-party manager, Elite Aviation VGT, LLC (“Elite”), we rent the helicopter on an hourly basis to tour operators for use in sightseeing tours of the Las Vegas strip, as well as for helicopter pilot training flights. Based on the current demand for hourly helicopter rental in Las Vegas, as well as our initial experience thus far, we expect to rent our initial helicopter for approximately 500 hours per year.

 

Expenses and Revenue Model

 

Our rental rates for helicopter time range from $360 to $380 per hour, with $370 per hour being the approximate average rate. Routine maintenance, fuel, insurance, parking, and other operating needs for the helicopter are provided to us by Elite and are billed to us on a monthly basis. In addition, Elite collects and disburses our gross rental revenues monthly.

 

Based on 500 hours per year of rental time for the helicopter, our current approximate operating expenses per hour of operation are as follows:

 

Reserve for future overhaul $ 100  
Maintenance and inspection required every 100 hours $ 35  
Fuel $ 85  
Insurance $ 36  
Parking $ 8  
GPS update card $ 10  
Total $ 274  

 

At an average rental rate of $370 per hour, our expected gross profit is thus approximately $96 per rental hour based on the expected 500 hour per year. In order to expand our revenue base, we are seeking equity financing to secure the down payment for acquisition of an additional helicopter.

Competition

 

There are a number of helicopter tour operators in the Las Vegas area offering tours of the Las Vegas strip, the Grand Canyon, and other sites. These operators are typically small to mid-sized concerns based and owned locally. Although some of them may own one or more of their own aircraft, they are typically in need of additional helicopters to be leased on an hourly basis. By making our aircraft available for use on an hourly basis through our third-party manager, Elite, we are offering a commodity that is demanded by the local tourism industry. Rental rates are thus set by market demand for helicopter time, together with the size and capabilities of the particular aircraft being used. Our ability to earn revenue is therefore not subject pressures exerted by any one dominant competitor.

 

  Research and Development Expenditures

 

We have not incurred any research or development expenditures since our incorporation.

 

Subsidiaries

 

We do not have any subsidiaries.

 

Intellectual Property

 

We do not own, either legally or beneficially, any patent, trademark, or other significant intellectual property.

 

Regulatory Matters

 

The primary regulations applicable to our operations are FAA regulations relating to aircraft maintenance and airworthiness contained in Part 43 of the FAA regulations. We are required to conduct an inspection of our aircraft every 100 hours of operation, and to perform a complete overhaul of the aircraft every twelve years or 2,200 hours, whichever comes first. Our Robinson R44 Raven II will be due for an overhaul under applicable FAA regulations in approximately 3 years or 700 hours of operation. We thus expect to perform the required overhaul in approximately 1 ½ years, when the aircraft has reached the 2,200 hour mark. As illustrated above, a significant portion of our gross revenues will be reserved against the required overhaul work.

 

Employees

 

We currently have no other employees other than our sole officer and director, Ian Johnson. Mr. Johnson is our President, CEO, CFO, and sole member of the Board of Directors.   

 

Environmental Laws

 

We have not incurred and do not anticipate incurring any expenses associated with environmental laws.

 

Description of Property

 

We do not own any real property.  We maintain our corporate office at 5389 Golden Barrel Ave., Las Vegas, NV 89141.  Our sole officer and director provides office services without charge. There is no obligation for him to continue this arrangement.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings. We are not aware of any pending legal proceeding to which any of our officers, directors, or any beneficial holders of 5% or more of our voting securities are adverse to us or have a material interest adverse to us.

 

Our agent for service of process in Nevada is Ian Johnson, 5389 Golden Barrel Ave., Las Vegas, NV 89141.

Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

 

No Public Market for Common Stock

 

There is presently no public market for our common stock.  We anticipate making an application for trading of our common stock on the over the counter bulletin board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.  We can provide no assurance that our shares will be traded on the bulletin board, or if traded, that a public market will materialize.

 

The Securities Exchange Commission has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system.  The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;(b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of Securities' laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask  price;(d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;(e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and;(f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type, size and format, as the Commission shall require by rule or regulation.

 

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with; (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;(b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction;(c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.

 

  In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.

 

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock if it becomes subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, because our common stock is subject to the penny stock rules, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.

 

Holders of Our Common Stock

 

Currently, we have one (1) holder of record of our common stock.

Table of Contents

 

Rule 144 Shares

 

None of our common stock is currently available for resale to the public under Rule 144.

 

In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person who has beneficially owned shares of a company's common stock for at least one year is entitled to sell within any three month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:

 

1.   one percent of the number of shares of the company's common stock then outstanding; or

 

2.   the average weekly trading volume of the company's common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on form 144 with respect to the sale.

 

Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about the company.

 

Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not one of the company's affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least two years, is entitled to sell shares without complying with the manner of sale, public information, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144.

 

Stock Option Grants

 

To date, we have not granted any stock options.

 

Dividends

 

There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that prevent us from declaring dividends.  The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:

 

1.   we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business, or;
2.   our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.

 

We have not declared any dividends and we do not plan to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

General Aircraft, Inc.

Las Vegas, Nevada

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of General Aircraft, Inc. ("the Company") as of August 31, 2011 and the related statements of operation, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the period of August 9, 2011 (Inception) to August 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of August 31, 2011 and the results of its operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows from August 9, 2011 (Inception) to August 31, 2011 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations. This factor raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1             ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

(A)Nature of Operations

 

General Aircraft, Inc. (a development stage company) (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on August 9, 2011.  The primary business purpose of General Aircraft, Inc. will be to transport people for tourism and entertainment purposes to destinations around the South Western region of the United States, such as hourly flights over the Las Vegas Strip in Nevada or the Grand Canyon in Arizona, or similar areas for an hourly or fixed fee.

 

(B) Basis of Presentation

 

The Company is in the development stage in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 915.

 

These financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and include the have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements on a going concern basis, which assumes the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of operations for the foreseeable future.

 

The Company has adopted an August 31 year end.

 

(C) Use of Estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates, which are recorded in the period in which they become known.

 

(D) Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  At August 31, 2011, the Company had no cash equivalents.

 

(E) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company records its property and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation. For financial reporting purposes, the Company uses the straight-line method to compute depreciation based upon estimated useful lives of five to fifteen years for flight equipment and three to ten years for other equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the life of the respective lease, or the asset, and range from six to ten years. The Company uses accelerated depreciation methods for tax purposes. The cost of scheduled inspections and modifications for flight equipment are charged to maintenance expense as incurred. We charge maintenance and repair costs to earnings as the costs are incurred. Modifications that enhance the operating performance or extend the useful lives of the aircraft are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining life of the asset. Upon selling or otherwise disposing of property and equipment, the Company removes the cost and accumulated depreciation from the accounts and reflects any resulting gain or loss in earnings at the time of sale or other disposition.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(E) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets (cont.)

 

The Company reviews its long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company measures recoverability of assets to be held and used by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows that it expects the asset to generate. When an asset is determined to be impaired, the Company recognizes that impairment amount, which is measured by the amount that the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. Similarly, the Company reports assets that it expects to sell at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

 

(F) Financial Instruments

 

Financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, notes payable and advances payable. Recorded values of cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair values due to the short maturities of such instruments. Recorded values for notes payable and related liabilities approximate fair values, since their stated or imputed interest rates are commensurate with prevailing market rates for similar obligations.

 

(G) Loss Per Share

 

The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260-10. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares available. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. As of August 31, 2011, there were no potential common shares underlying warrants or options.

 

(H) Revenue Recognition

 

The Company currently has not generated revenues. Any future revenues related to aviation transportation services, earned primarily through the sale of hourly flight time, will be recognized after the services are performed or the contractual obligations are met.

 

(I) Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC Topic 740-10. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. When it is considered to be more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is provided for the excess.

 

(J) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Fair Value Measurement

In May 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance changing some fair value measurement principles, such as by prohibiting the application of a blockage factor in fair value measurements and only requiring the application of

 

F- 7
Table of Contents

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(J) Recent Accounting Pronouncements (cont.)

 

the highest and best use concept when measuring nonfinancial assets. The accounting guidance will require, for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements, disclosure of quantitative information about unobservable inputs used, a description of the valuation processes used and a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of the measurements.

The accounting guidance further requires new disclosures about the use of a nonfinancial asset measured or disclosed at fair value if its use differs from its highest and best use. In addition, entities must report the fair value hierarchy level of assets and liabilities not recorded at fair value but where fair value is disclosed. The accounting standards update will be effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

Presentation of Other Comprehensive Income

In June 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standards update on the presentation of other comprehensive income. The new accounting guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The new standard allows companies to present net income and other comprehensive income either in one continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive, statements. The accounting standards update will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 and is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

Testing Goodwill for Impairment

In September 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to simplify how entities test goodwill for impairment. The new accounting guidance provides an entity with an option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test under current accounting guidance. If an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform the first step of the two-step impairment test. Also under this new accounting guidance, an entity has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to performing the first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test, but may resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. The accounting standards update will be effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

NOTE 2      GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred a net loss of $8,235 for the period of August 9, 2011 (inception) to August 31, 2011, and it is expected that it will continue to have negative cash flows as the business plan is implemented.

 

These conditions give rise to doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of reported asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing or sale of its common stock as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Management's statements contained in this portion of the prospectus are not historical facts and are forward-looking statements. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on the operations and future prospects of the Company on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to, those matters discussed under the section entitled “Risk Factors,” above.  Such risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.

 

Planned Operations for Fiscal Year Beginning September 1, 2011

 

During our first full fiscal year, we expect to have our Robinson R44 Raven II in rental operation for approximately 500 hours, generating gross revenues of approximately $185,000 based on an average rental rate of $370 per hour. Net of our estimated per-hour operating expenses of approximately $274, or $137,000 for 500 hours of operation, we expect to earn a gross profit of approximately $48,000 from operation of the Robinson R44 Raven II helicopter during our first full fiscal year. In addition to operating expenses, we expect to spend $12,769.50 in our first full fiscal year for payment of interest on our existing aircraft loan, as well as approximately $12,000 in ongoing legal and accounting expenses.

 

The bulk of the funding sought in this offering will be used for a down payment on an additional aircraft, which will allow us to broaden our revenue based substantially. Standard general aviation aircraft financing terms typically call for a 15% down payment, with the aircraft value and purchase price being the primary factors that drive the terms and interest rates for such financing. We have allocated $20,000 from the proceeds of this offering for the down payment on an additional aircraft to cost approximately $130,000. Although we have not identified a particular aircraft for purchase, we expect that it will be either another helicopter that is somewhat smaller and less powerful than our Robinson R44 Raven II, or a small single-engine fixed wing aircraft.

 

As our operations become more established, we hope to continue to add additional aircraft in future years and to potentially expand beyond the Las Vegas area to offer helicopters and other aircraft for rental in the Caribbean or other popular tourist sightseeing destinations.

 

Significant Equipment

 

As outline above, pending receipt of substantially the full amount of the funds sought in this offering, we intend to purchase one additional aircraft during the fiscal year beginning September 1, 2011. We do not intend to purchase any other additional significant equipment for the next twelve months.  

 

Results of Operations for the Period from August 9, 2011 (Date of Inception) until August 31, 2011

 

We generated no revenue and incurred $8,235 in expenses for the period from inception on August 9, 2011 through August 31, 2011.  Our expenses consisted primarily of professional expenses and inspection fees.  We therefore recorded a net loss of $8,235 for the period from inception on August 9, 2011 until August 31, 2011. Now that we have commenced operations and have begun renting our Robinson R44 Raven II helicopter on an hourly basis, we expect that our gross revenues and operating expenses will increase substantially going forward.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of August 31, 2011, we had total current assets of $10,000, consisting entirely of cash. We had current liabilities of $7,923 as of August 31, 2011, consisting of accounts payable of $7,375 and accrued interest on our aircraft loan of $548.  Accordingly, we had working capital of $2,077 as of August 31, 2011.

 

24
Table of Contents

 

Our current aircraft loan is purchase money financing in the amount of $212, 812.50 secured by our Robinson R44 Raven II helicopter. The loan bears interest at the rate of six percent (6%) per year, and requires semi-annual interest payments of $6,384.75, commencing on March 31, 2012, and continuing every six months thereafter. All principal and interest is due under the loan on August 11, 2016.

 

The success of our business plan will depend in part on raising funds through the current offering.  Although our expected gross operating revenues over the next should allow us to pay our expenses and continue in operation without additional financing, we will be unable to broaden our revenue base beyond our current single aircraft if the maximum offering is not sold. In addition, the funds sought in this offering will provide us with an additional working capital reserve that will be available for extraordinary repair or maintenance expenses and to assist with the cost of our ongoing legal and accounting expenses. Thus, if substantially less than the maximum offering is sold, however, our ability to expand our revenue base will be immediately impaired and our working capital reserves may be inadequate to fund any unexpected expenses over the course of the current fiscal year. Although we are seeking equity financing through this Offering, we do not have any formal commitments or arrangements for the sales of stock or the advancement or loan of funds at this time. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.

 

Going Concern

 

As discussed in the notes to our financial statements, we have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing or generating revenue from operations to continue operations for the immediate future.  This has raised substantial doubt for our auditors about our ability to continue as a going concern.  

 

Our activities to date have been supported by equity and secured debt financing.  Management continues to seek funding from its shareholders and other qualified investors to pursue its business plan. 

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of August 31, 2011, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.

 

Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants

 

We have had no changes in or disagreements with our accountants.

Executive Compensation

 

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

 

The Company presently not does have employment agreements with its executive officer and it has not established a system of executive compensation or any fixed policies regarding compensation of executive officers.  Due to financial constraints typical of those faced by a development stage business, the company has not paid any cash and/or stock compensation to its named executive officer.

 

Our sole executive officer holds substantial ownership in the Company and is motivated by a strong entrepreneurial interest in developing our operations and potential revenue base to the best of his ability.   As our business and operations expand and mature, we expect to develop a formal system of compensation designed to attract, retain and motivate talented executives.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management

 

The following table sets forth, as of the date of this Prospectus, the beneficial ownership of our common stock by each executive officer and director, by each person known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of the our common stock and by the executive officers and directors as a group. Except as otherwise indicated, all shares are owned directly and the percentage shown is based on 10,000,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

As used in this table, "beneficial ownership" means the sole or shared power to vote, or to direct the voting of, a security, or the sole or shared investment power with respect to a security (i.e., the power to dispose of, or to direct the disposition of, a security). In addition, for purposes of this table, a person is deemed, as of any date, to have "beneficial ownership" of any security that such person has the right to acquire within 60 days after such date.

 

The persons named above have full voting and investment power with respect to the shares indicated.  Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, a person (or group of persons) is deemed to be a "beneficial owner" of a security if he or she, directly or indirectly, has or shares the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security.  Accordingly, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security, which that person has the right to acquire within 60 days, such as options or warrants to purchase our common stock.

 

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

 

To date, we have not adopted a stock option plan or other equity compensation plan and have not issued any stock, options, or other securities as compensation.

 

Disclosure of Commission Position of Indemnification for Securities Act Liabilities

 

In accordance with the provisions in our articles of incorporation, we will indemnify an officer, director, or former officer or director, to the full extent permitted by law.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of us in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

 

Except as set forth below, none of our directors or executive officers, nor any proposed nominee for election as a director, nor any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, shares carrying more than 5% of the voting rights attached to all of our outstanding shares, nor any members of the immediate family (including spouse, parents, children, siblings, and in-laws) of any of the foregoing persons has any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction since our incorporation or in any presently proposed transaction which, in either case, has or will materially affect us.

 

1.            Ian Johnson, our sole officer and director and controlling shareholder, currently serves as an aircraft mechanic at Elite Aviation VGT, LLC (“Elite”). Under an Aircraft Use / Management Agreement dated September 1, 2011, Elite coordinates the hourly rental of our helicopter and provides routine maintenance, fuel, insurance, parking, and other operating needs for the helicopter. The principals of Elite, Jason Duncan and Shawn Mullin, were our officers and controlling shareholders on September 1, 2011. Subsequently, on October 26, 2011, these individuals resigned all positions with the company and sold their shares to Mr. Johnson.

 

2. On August 22, 2011, Jason S. Duncan and Shawn E. Mullin each purchased 5,000,000 of our common stock (10,000,000 shares total) at a purchase price of $0.001 per shares ($10,000 total). At that time, Mr. Duncan was our president, CEO, CFO, treasurer, and sole director. Mr. Mullin was our secretary and COO at that time. On October 26, 2011, Mr. Duncan and Mr. Mullin transferred these shares to our sole officer and director, Ian Johnson, for a total purchase price of $10,000.

2.   a violation of criminal law (unless the director had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful);

4.   willful misconduct.
30
Table of Contents

 

Our bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent not prohibited by Nevada law; provided, however, that we may modify the extent of such indemnification by individual contracts with our directors and officers; and, provided, further, that we shall not be required to indemnify any director or officer in connection with any proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless:

 

1.   such indemnification is expressly required to be made by law;

 

2.   the proceeding was authorized by our Board of Directors;

 

3.   such indemnification is provided by us, in our sole discretion, pursuant to the powers  vested us under Nevada law; or;

 

4.   such indemnification is required to be made pursuant to the bylaws.

 

Our bylaws provide that we will advance to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer, of the company, or is or was serving at the request of the company as a director or executive officer of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior to the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request therefore, all expenses incurred by any director or officer in connection with such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay said amounts if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under our bylaws or otherwise.

 

Our bylaws provide that no advance shall be made by us to an officer of the company, except by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the company in which event this paragraph shall not apply, in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, if a determination is reasonably and promptly made: (a) by the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the proceeding, or (b) if such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that the facts known to the decision-making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the company.

Section 2.     Common Stock.     

(a)     Dividend Rate.     Subject to the rights of holders of any Preferred Stock having preference as to dividends and except as otherwise provided by these Articles of Incorporation, as amended from time to time (hereinafter, the " Articles ") or the Nevada Revised Statues (hereinafter, the “ NRS ”), the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by the board of directors out of assets legally available therefor.

(b)     Voting Rights.     Except as otherwise provided by the NRS, the holders of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock. No holder of shares of Common Stock shall have the right to cumulate votes.

(c)     Liquidation Rights.     In the event of liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, subject to the prior rights of holders of Preferred Stock to share ratably in the Corporation's assets, the Common Stock and any shares of Preferred Stock which are not entitled to any preference in liquidation shall share equally and ratably in the Corporation's assets available for distribution after giving effect to any liquidation preference of any shares of Preferred Stock.

(a)     Designation.     The board of directors is hereby vested with the authority from time to time to provide by resolution for the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series not exceeding the aggregate number of shares of Preferred Stock authorized by these Articles, and to prescribe with respect to each such series the voting powers, if any, designations, preferences, and relative, participating, optional, or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations, or restrictions relating thereto, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing: the voting rights relating to the shares of Preferred Stock of any series (which voting rights, if any, may be full or limited, may vary over time, and may be applicable generally or only upon any stated fact or event); the rate of dividends (which may be cumulative or noncumulative), the condition or time for payment of dividends and the preference or relation of such dividends to dividends payable on any other class or series of capital stock; the rights of holders of Preferred Stock of any series in the event of liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation; the rights, if any, of holders of Preferred Stock of any series to convert or exchange such shares of Preferred Stock of such series for shares of any other class or series of capital stock or for any other securities, property, or assets of the Corporation or any subsidiary (including the determination of the price or prices or the rate or rates applicable to such rights to convert or exchange and the adjustment thereof, the time or times during which the right to convert or exchange shall be applicable, and the time or times during which a particular price or rate shall be applicable); whether the shares of any series of Preferred Stock shall be subject to redemption by the Corporation and if subject to redemption, the times, prices, rates, adjustments and other terms and conditions of such redemption. The powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights may be made dependent upon any fact or event which may be ascertained outside the Articles or the resolution if the manner in which the fact or event may operate on such series is stated in the Articles or resolution. As used in this section "fact or event" includes, without limitation, the existence of a fact or occurrence of an event, including, without limitation, a determination or action by a person, government, governmental agency or political subdivision of a government. The board of directors is further authorized to increase or decrease (but not below the number of such shares of such series then outstanding) the number of shares of any series subsequent to the issuance of shares of that series. Unless the board of directors provides to the contrary in the resolution which fixes the characteristics of a series of Preferred Stock, neither the consent by series, or otherwise, of the holders of any outstanding Preferred Stock nor the consent of the holders of any outstanding Common Stock shall be required for the issuance of any new series of Preferred Stock regardless of whether the rights and preferences of the new series of Preferred Stock are senior or superior, in any way, to the outstanding series of Preferred Stock or the Common Stock.

(b)     Certificate.     Before the Corporation shall issue any shares of Preferred Stock of any series, a certificate of designation setting forth a copy of the resolution or resolutions of the board of directors, and establishing the voting powers, designations, preferences, the relative, participating, optional, or other rights, if any, and the qualifications, limitations, and restrictions, if any, relating to the shares of Preferred Stock of such series, and the number of shares of Preferred Stock of such series authorized by the board of directors to be issued shall be made and signed by an officer of the corporation and filed in the manner prescribed by the NRS.

In the absence of a quorum, any meeting of stockholders may be adjourned, from time to time, either by the chairman of the meeting or by vote of the holders of a majority of the shares represented thereat, but no other business shall be transacted at such meeting. The stockholders present at a duly called or convened meeting, at which a quorum is present, may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, all action taken by the holders of a majority of the votes cast, excluding abstentions, at any meeting at which a quorum is present shall be valid and binding upon the corporation; provided, however, that directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. Where a separate vote by a class or classes or series is required, except where otherwise provided by the statute or by the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a majority of the outstanding shares of such class or classes or series, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter and, except where otherwise provided by the statute or by the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the affirmative vote of the majority (plurality, in the case of the election of directors) of the votes cast, including abstentions, by the holders of shares of such class or classes or series shall be the act of such class or classes or series.

 

Section 9. Adjournment and Notice of Adjourned Meetings.

At the adjourned meeting, the corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

Every person entitled to vote shall have the right to do so either in person or by an agent or agents authorized by a proxy granted in accordance with Nevada law.

If the instrument filed with the Secretary shows that any such tenancy is held in unequal interests, a majority or even-split for the purpose of subsection (c) shall be a majority or even-split in interest.

 

Section 12. List of Stockholders. The Secretary shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at said meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder.

INDEMNIFICATION

 

Section 43. Indemnification of Directors, Executive Officers, Other Officers, Employees and Other Agents.

 

(a) Directors Officers. The corporation shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent not prohibited by the Nevada General Corporation Law; provided, however, that the corporation may modify the extent of such indemnification by individual contracts with its directors and officers; and, provided, further, that the corporation shall not be required to indemnify any director or officer in connection with any proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless (i) such indemnification is expressly required to be made by law, (ii) the proceeding was authorized by the Board of Directors of the corporation, (iii) such indemnification is provided by the corporation, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the corporation under the Nevada General Corporation Law or (iv) such indemnification is required to be made under subsection (d).

 

(b) Employees and Other Agents. The corporation shall have power to indemnify its employees and other agents as set forth in the Nevada General Corporation Law.

 

(c) Expense. The corporation shall advance to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer, of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director or executive officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior to the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request therefor, all expenses incurred by any director or officer in connection with such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay said mounts if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Bylaw or otherwise.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise determined pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Bylaw, no advance shall be made by the corporation to an officer of the corporation (except by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the corporation in which event this paragraph shall not apply) in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, if a determination is reasonably and promptly made (i) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the proceeding, or (ii) if such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that the facts known to the decision-making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation.

16
 

 

(d) Enforcement. Without the necessity of entering into an express contract, all rights to indemnification and advances to directors and officers under this Bylaw shall be deemed to be contractual rights and be effective to the same extent and as if provided for in a contract between the corporation and the director or officer. Any right to indemnification or advances granted by this Bylaw to a director or officer shall be enforceable by or on behalf of the person holding such right in any court of competent jurisdiction if (i) the claim for indemnification or advances is denied, in whole or in part, or (ii) no disposition of such claim is made within ninety (90) days of request therefor. The claimant in such enforcement action, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting his claim. In connection with any claim for indemnification, the corporation shall be entitled to raise as a defense to any such action that the claimant has not met the standard of conduct that make it permissible under the Nevada General Corporation Law for the corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed. In connection with any claim by an officer of the corporation (except in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the corporation) for advances, the corporation shall be entitled to raise a defense as to any such action clear and convincing evidence that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed in the best interests of the corporation, or with respect to any criminal action or proceeding that such person acted without reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was lawful. Neither the failure of the corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the Nevada General Corporation Law, nor an actual determination by the corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct. In any suit brought by a director or officer to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, the burden of proving that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article XI or otherwise shall be on the corporation.

 

(e) Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights conferred on any person by this Bylaw shall not be exclusive of any other right which such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding office. The corporation is specifically authorized to enter into individual contracts with any or all of its directors, officers, employees or agents respecting indemnification and advances, to the fullest extent not prohibited by the Nevada General Corporation Law.

 

(f) Survival of Rights. The rights conferred on any person by this Bylaw shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or other agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

17
 

 

(g) Insurance. To the fullest extent permitted by the Nevada General Corporation Law, the corporation, upon approval by the Board of Directors, may purchase insurance on behalf of any person required or permitted to be indemnified pursuant to this Bylaw.

 

(h) Amendments. Any repeal or modification of this Bylaw shall only be prospective and shall not affect the rights under this Bylaw in effect at the time of the alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act that is the cause of any proceeding against any agent of the corporation.

 

(i) Saving Clause. If this Bylaw or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each director and officer to the full extent not prohibited by any applicable portion of this Bylaw that shall not have been invalidated, or by any other applicable law.

 

(j) Certain Definitions. For the purposes of this Bylaw, the following definitions shall apply:

 

(i) The term "proceeding" shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, the investigation, preparation, prosecution, defense, settlement, arbitration and appeal of, and the giving of testimony in, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative.

(iv) References to a "director," "executive officer," "officer," "employee," or "agent" of the corporation shall include, without limitation, situations where such person is serving at the request of the corporation as, respectively, a director, executive officer, officer, employee, trustee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.

Re: General Aircraft, Inc., Registration Statement on Form S-1

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

I have acted as counsel for General Aircraft, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the registration statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), relating to the offering of 3,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

In rendering the opinion set forth below, I have reviewed: (a) the Registration Statement and the exhibits attached thereto; (b) the Company's Articles of Incorporation; (c) the Company's Bylaws; (d) certain records of the Company's corporate proceedings as reflected in its minute books; and (e) such statutes, records and other documents as we have deemed relevant. In my examination, I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and conformity with the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies thereof. In addition, I have made such other examinations of law and fact, as I have deemed relevant in order to form a basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed.

 

Based upon the foregoing, I am of the opinion that the 3,500,000 shares of common stock to be sold by the Company will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable when issued by the Company if the consideration for the shares described in the prospectus is received by the Company. This opinion is based on Nevada general corporate law, including the statutory provisions, all applicable provisions of the Nevada constitution and reported judicial decisions interpreting those laws.

 

Very truly yours,

As applicable, the terms of this Note with respect to Maker’s granting of a security interest in the Collateral to Holder shall be deemed to be a security agreement under applicable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code (“ UCC ”), with Maker as the debtor and Holder as the secured party.

        
 

 

4. Perfection .
