your disclosure on page 91 that the projected aircraft production timing for the Jaunt

revise your disclosures to clarify why the Jaunt Journey commercialization timing
change resulted in "an escalation of sales price" and explain how this disclosure is

projections."
Exhibits
4.We note your disclosure in the footnotes to the exhibit index that parts of certain

prominent statement on the first page of such redacted exhibit that certain identified
