Since suspending development of the two-seat Javelin very light jet program in late December, the board of directors at Aviation Technology Group of Englewood, Colo., has continued to negotiate with Israel Aerospace Industries (its strategic partner) and financial institutions. According to ATG, the board's efforts are now "focused on negotiations with interested parties pursuing a possible sale or a majority buyout of ATG." The company said several teams are seeking potential buyers, requesting their "best and final offer bids."

“When you get into the larger aircraft it becomes like a hotel, with dozens of staff supporting the plane based in a galley area down below. You have very comprehensive cooking facilities, and on larger aircraft we have looked at theatres, with spiral staircases and a Steinway grand piano. The limitations for what you can put inside a plane are pretty much the limits of physics, and even money cannot always overcome that. Even so, people are still always trying to push [the limits]. ”
