(OTCQX: FLYLF) (the “Company” or “FLYHT”) is pleased to announce
that Ms. Nina Jonsson, a 30-year global airline industry veteran,
has agreed to serve as Chairman of the Board of FLYHT. Ms. Jonsson

customer-focused team at FLYHT,” said Nina, “As a pioneer and
independent provider in the live-streaming aircraft data space for
the past two decades, FLYHT is uniquely positioned to help airline
customers achieve cost-savings, greater operational efficiencies,
and enhanced safety with its Actionable Intelligence solutions. As
Chairman, I’m looking forward to continuing to work with Bill and
the entire FLYHT team to promote the Company’s services across the
airline industry and to help it grow into the major player it
deserves to be.”
Barry Eccleston, outgoing Chairman of FLYHT, stated, “I have
known Nina for years and recruited her to the board because of her
knowledge and passion for the industry she has been part of for
three decades. As I stated at FLYHT’s recent AGM, I am confident
that the Company is being left in good hands to capitalize on the
recovery of the industry we all love.”
Bill Tempany, Interim CEO of FLYHT, stated, “Getting to know
Nina over the last two years, I am confident that her leadership
style, industry knowledge and contacts, and passion for the
business, will help drive FLYHT in ways we have never experienced
before. I am looking forward to working with Nina to take our
Company to new heights and provide a rewarding place for our
employees and shareholders. We have a new vigor in the business,
and under Nina’s stewardship, will take advantage of turning our
strong products into industry transforming solutions.”
