Plainview, New York, March 1, 2008

Fortbrand Services, a leader in the rental, leasing and sale of aircraft ground support equipment (GSE) and the distribution and support of specialized airfield maintenance equipment, announces the expansion of its product offering to include the distribution of new truck mounted Av-Gas aircraft refuelers and GSE refuelers manufactured by Trans-Tech Industries, a leader in tank technology and the manufacturer of tanks used to transport fuel and other liquids throughout the transportation industry. Ken Peters, President of Trans-Tech, stated “Our association with a distributor of the quality of Fortbrand Services will enable us to penetrate the aircraft refueling market for small aircraft requiring Av-Gas, while we continue to supply large tanks to Rampmaster for use in the jet fuel market.

Fortbrand Services also announced an alliance with Rampmaster for the leasing of refurbished Rampmaster jet-fuel trucks needed by customers on a short term basis. “Fully refurbished Rampmaster aircraft refuelers provide our customers with new options for seasonal peak demands or short term rental requirements that may result from new business opportunities. In addition, having such units in inventory enables us to fill the gap between a new truck order and its delivery,” states Fred DiBenedetto, Vice President Business Development.

“Working closely with Fortbrand Services adds a new dimension for the expanded and extended utilization of the Rampmaster brand of vehicles” adds Mike Wilkinson, President of Rampmaster.

With the addition of these specialized lines of fueling vehicles for both aircraft and GSE, Fortbrand Services can now provide its customers with an expanded complement of equipment required at any airport.

Fortbrand Services is a niche business specializing in the sale, lease and rental of aircraft ground support equipment throughout the aviation industry. The Company also is a distributor for unique airfield maintenance equipment, including the Vammas PSB 5500, Hagie GST 20 Sprayer, Fresia F2000 Compact Sweeper and Beam VX 800 Multi-Task Airport Service Vehicle.
