Hi Tower Dog
I just suggest that you take some interest in what's going on in other parts of the world.
That YOU have never heard of a company doesn't mean that it doesn't exist, doesn't it?
Well, for example, read the magazines, some are very good ones (Flight, Aviation Week..) you can buy them at the airports, or watch the other aircraft on the ground at the airports, or discuss with people who know!
And Khalif doesn't mean infidel, never did
Good luck
