On September 8, 2005, our expert can bring the Denver Fuel Fire coinponenls to Mr. McSwaui's laboratory in Pensacola, Florida, or to ESI (if more feasible in light of Hurricane Katrina). If, as we anticipate, we also will be in possession of components from the Atlanta incident, those also will be brought. Of course, only non-destructive testing will be permitted, and only in the presence OF our expert aid couiisel for British Airways.
