> Sorry I missed time slot with you & Rob the other day … did want to see if you had any C-level / Board contacts at L-3 Communications, as I have a client who is interested in acquiring their business (L-3 Vertex Aerospace) here in Mississippi.  L-3 Communications has announced (on last week’s earnings call) that they would be divesting of several “services-based businesses” and we believe that L-3 Vertex Aerospace (Madison County, Mississippi) might be one of those.  Russell Mack runs Mergers & Acquisitions for L-3 Communications in NYC.  [] Again, just wanted to see if you might have high level contacts.  Thanks and let me know if you & Rob can connect for 15-mintues tomorrow morning.  Take care.

My client is currently in the aviation leasing business with a variety of federal agencies and has a desire to enhance & augment their business with a service & maintenance business.  My client has the financial ability to make such acquisitions, and thus, I wanted to inquire of any potential interest you might have concerning your L-3 Vertex Aerospace operations here in Mississippi.  I spoke with your assistant this morning on this matter.  Thanks in advance for your time & consideration.
