NEWPORT NEWS, Virginia, July 6, 2011 -


Today, Orion Air
Group (OAG), through their sister corporation href="www.tempusjets.com/what-we-care-about/">Tempus
Jets, announced an agreement with the Government of Rwanda to
establish a stronger and more robust private aviation presence in
the region.

Initial plans include the establishment of traditional Fixed
Base Operation (FBO) services and also the positioning of a number
of turbine powered aircraft that will be available for href="www.tempusjets.com/aircraft-charter/">on-demand
charter to support humanitarian service groups and clientele in
the Great Lakes region of Africa.  Tempus Jets will provide a
platform for businesses, private charter clients and humanitarian
service groups to expand their access to the Great Lakes region in
order to serve as a catalyst for increased investment in the
region.  

Tempus Jets will be locating two fixed-wing aircraft and one VIP
transport helicopter to href="maps.google.com/maps/place?rlz=1T4WZPG_enUS425US425&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=kigali+international+airport&fb=1&gl=us&hq=international+airport&hnear=0x19dca4258ed8e797:0xf32b36a5411d0bc8,Kigali,+Rwanda&cid=5038325607628013282">
Kigali International Airport in August 2011. The establishment
of a fleet of aircraft dedicated to this vision with the support of
the Government of Rwanda will expand in scope and operations as
quickly as the market develops.  

Rwanda’s strategic location, business-friendly environment, and
exciting future business growth potential were the key factors
leading to this partnership,” commented href="www.tempusjets.com/about/management-team/">Scott
Terry, CEO of Orion Air Group and Tempus Jets. “We are highly
confident that this investment in private aviation in the East
African region, particularly Rwanda, will result in an exceptional
return on our investment and deployed assets. The positive response
by all involved parties in Rwanda to our business plan has been one
of the most satisfying of my career.”

“The aviation sector of Rwanda and its strategic location in the
Great Lakes region offers a unique opportunity for Tempus Jets to
expand its global experience in providing safe, reliable,
professionally piloted and precision-maintained private aircraft
into the region,” said Richard Masozera, Director General of the href="www.caa.gov.rw/">Rwanda Civil Aviation Authority.
“Tempus Jet’s service in Africa will bring positive impact through
humanitarian service, capital investments via a fleet of quality
aircraft and a growing base of skilled jobs and operations.”
