How about Elton John's song "Durban Deep" as this share is the Pits at the moment.

Apparently if you take a full set of aerobox boxes in pairs and a bamboo cane, you have the perfect equipment for the game of limbo whereby each competitor dances leaning backwards under a lower and lower bamboo resting each end on a pair of smaller and smaller aeroboxes. The one who goes under lowest without falling over or touching the stick wins.

SD,

LOL!

This does have a sort of doomed look about it at present, to be honest.

I would like them to succeed, but something tells me they will run out of cash before they reach a crtitical mass, but I hope I'm wrong!

AeroBox Announces Start of Trial Order for Qatar Airways
Thursday May 26, 12:56 pm ET


RIO RANCHO, N.M., May 26 /PRNewswire/ -- AeroBox Composite Structures LLC (ACS), a subsidiary of Aerobox plc (ARX) reports the delivery of 10 AeroBox LD3 cargo containers to Qatar Airways for operational and field tests.
Qatar, a rapidly-growing Middle Eastern airline, recently signed a deal with Airbus for an additional 34 aircraft, which will increase its aircraft fleet to 52 by the end of 2008. The company has also signed an agreement to purchase two A380 'super jumbos.'

Hamad A. Saeed, Container Control Officer for Qatar Airways, said, "The AeroBox containers are highly recommended by our CEO and other users. If all goes according to our safety and commercial requirements, we would proceed with acquiring a large quantity in the future."

ACS has satisfactorily delivered orders for the thermoplastic container units to Aer Lingus, Virgin Atlantic Airways, Varig and Saudi Arabian Airlines and anticipates a stronger sales relationship with Qatar Airways.

The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration, the British Civil Aviation Authority, and the European Aviation Safety Agency have granted full certification for the AeroBox units.

AeroBox containers are constructed of lightweight Aeroplaz(TM) thermoplastic composite panels. This design provides for improved strength and durability that can reduce costly repairs and extend the container's life cycle.


Aerobox plc is listed on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange.

Thanks moneyman - 10 boxes on trial. How many per aircraft X 52 fleet size? What I'm waiting for is a major US airline to confirm a sizeable order - told that there are some on the way.

i am still watch and waiting for the first order! come on boys!

moneyman - 30 May 2005 21:31 - 295 of 520

ARX must be much closer to a major order. At this price it must constitute a buy. The reason for the drop was obviously RHPS issuing a sell not. Did they see the Qatar Airways news before....NO

Did they do the same to RTD at 16p..YES....It then went to 35p+

Please DYOR

Re Options with air Lingus for 900 units (option taken out with initial order for 100 units) - does anyone know what sort of time limit to exercise options (12 months - 24 months ?),
Also did Virgin take out any similar options when ordering 250 units last year.
Confident orders will come and patience is a virtue - have followed this stock for some time and have only recently bought in ! It seems to me that the new kelvinBox could be the catalyst required to unlock orders as like the original box this appears to be another unique product for the aviation industry and all the trade press reports re. composite material and design seem to be totally positive about this company and it's potential markets and applications for the future.

moneyman - 07 Jun 2005 21:42 - 297 of 520

TGD there is some good discussion intermingled with the crap on ADV site. Maybe try asking over there. At this price I am certainly adding. Sellers or shorters are not going to be around for much longer.

This is a bargain.

proptrade - 09 Jun 2005 13:03 - 298 of 520

alot of sudden interst...order out there?

stockdog - 09 Jun 2005 13:15 - 299 of 520

My God - they went up! Someone knows something, an RNS must follow soon. Or maybe like me everyone suddenly realises the concept is fantastic.

I am SO in a hole on these - maybe I'll even break even if we keep going like today!

Stockdog,
In that case we are brothers in arms, I don't know about a hole more like a well and some buggars taken away the bucket and rope, long haul?.

sidtrix - 09 Jun 2005 13:26 - 301 of 520

Stockdog was this the upward trend you mentioned... shall I dip in abit ;)

AdieH - 09 Jun 2005 13:46 - 302 of 520

come on needs alot more for me to break even...

proptrade - 09 Jun 2005 13:46 - 303 of 520

i can't believe it, i just bought some at 6.25. BEFORE an announcement. i swore i never wood but i think there may be something brewing

sidtrix - 09 Jun 2005 13:59 - 304 of 520

Prop... looks like a bad sign (we both buying at the same time, although I bought in @6.44) Normally when we sell Shares, the price rockets... have the roles reversed????

BTW were the 200k yourz?

proptrade - 09 Jun 2005 14:06 - 305 of 520

6.5 lifted!

proptrade - 09 Jun 2005 14:08 - 306 of 520

i am only 100/-! i haven't seen the announcement yet...then i might really have a position. this is utter play stuff right now

proptrade - 09 Jun 2005 14:08 - 307 of 520
