Homes

weekly aviation program about the sport of piloting all kinds of
aircraft, announces that its distribution will increase by 14 million

arrangement with Time Warner to pick up Sport Pilot TV programming from
Turner Media who is airing the aviation show on several of its
channels. While part of a larger deal with the programming giant, this
will put Sport Pilot TV into nearly 40 million homes and distribution
is expected to grow along with demand for aviation programming.

Media to add the program to its iDrive channel on Dish Network
beginning the week of March 27th, 2006. Sport Pilot TV already airs two
times per week in its Motors Block on Channel 218 carried by Dish
Satellite and numerous other local providers. Show times are
nation-wide at 10:30pm ET / 9:30pm CT on Saturdays and 4:00pm ET /
3:00pm CT on Sundays.
