    /24-7PressRelease/ - SURREY, UK, February 15, 2006 - The Management team headed by Andrew Barrett has been running Mekon-AIS for over 3 years and saw this as a great opportunity to take advantage of the company's strength in the market place and further grow its dedicated offerings in the Aeronautical Information Services industry. The new company will continue to grow their own product range, including FrameAPS, apsXML and the AIXM Data Management System, and will still retain its PDToolKit reseller status and continue to service its many clients.
