Bill Moog had been working for Cornell Aeronautical Laboratories, in a team tasked with developing automatic control devices for use in advanced aircraft and guided missile applications. Bill's part in that was to invent a practical electro-hydraulic servovalve – a high performance control device.He developed a design that he thought was an improvement on anything that had been done before. He took it to present to Johns Hopkins University, who were funding the project. They didn't think it was a breakthrough.By the next morning, Bill had redrawn and redesigned his ideas. This time he was certain he had come up with a truly revolutionary servovalve. He showed it to Cornell. Nobody wanted it.Bill was undeterred. The upside of the rejection was that, because nobody saw the potential in the device, nobody was going to stand in his way if he went out and made it himself. And that's what he did. He set up shop in an old airplane hangar. His brother Art sold his house and joined him. They got Lou Geyer to come on board to test the results and explain the product to customers. And they convinced a couple of machinists to agree to make the components, even though they couldn't pay them anything until the valves were sold. But they did sell. And before long, that original servovalve was joined, one by one, by an inspiring portfolio of breakthrough products that helped shape the most high-tech industry sectors in the world. And those first few employees were joined by a growing workforce who subscribed to the same ideals as the three founders – that tough problems only serve to challenge those who are creative and determined to come up with even more ingenious solutions.

Flight Safety Technologies is developing advanced technologies to improve the safety and efficiency of air travel through product development of proprietary technologies that monitor wake turbulence, reduce airport delays, and enhance aviation safety.These technologies have the potential to generate substantial cost savings for airports, airlines and passengers.At Flight Safety Technologies, our vision is a simple one: we seek to develop technology to improve the safety, efficiency and security of air travel. We can achieve our vision by developing high technology products and systems that give early warning of dangerous air conditions on runways and near airports; provide the means by which smaller aircraft can avoid mid-air collisions and inadvertent flight into terrain; and protect commercial airliners from the threat of shoulder-launched missiles. We believe that the American flying public deserves the greatest possible safety and efficiency when traveling. With the support of government appropriations for our research and development and a series of critical strategic relationships, we are determined to do all we can to ensure it.

Grand Aire is a classic example of the American dream being realized. The company started in 1985 like many small businesses do, built on the dreams of an entrepreneur with the intelligence and determination to overcome all obstacles. Founder Tahir Cheema arrived in the United States eleven years earlier to attend the University of Alabama. That day in 1974, he had $40 in his pocket, but his drive to succeed was as big as America itself.T.C. achieved another goal after his college days where he got his degree in Engineering. While working at Ford as a design engineer, he earned a private pilot’s certificate in 1980 and purchased his first aircraft a few years later. Armed with his pilot’s certificate and his first aircraft, a Piper Arrow, Tahir began flying freight for the ‘Big 3’ automakers. His reputation for hard work grew along with the demand for his services. When Cheema expanded the operation and started the company, customers were promised “30 minutes wheels up”, a previously unheard of guarantee in the charter freight industry.
