here we go! setting fire to each other the issue is the income potential for a young black bahamian.
With an average rate of $200 per flight and 2 flights per hour over an 8 hour day, revenue forecasts are $3200/day. With just 200 operating days per year, this translates to $640,000 in annual revenue!
The Jetlev jetpack is approved for use in all USGC-patrolled waters and insurance is available for commercial operations.
...the only problem is: Bahamians don't come bearing gifts
I think there is a much more serious issue that must be discussed where it concerns Bahamians (young black male Bahamians) and their business ambitions here in the Bahamas. I use to believe it was a "PLP thing" but then FNM did the same to me when I made a presentation - to both governments, related to public safety and technology in the Bahamas. Actually, an offer was just made to the Bahamas again by our group last month to provide a necessary automotive safety and inspection services. The proposal wasn't given any consideration and it was a free offer to the Bahamas. At one point I was told point-blank "people don't like your family name" when make a presentation to a group of Government officials some years ago. But then it’s ok to pay-out millions to "old white Canadian men" for services that don't work and don’t perform as advertised – and we have a history of this in The Bahamas. I am now supporting the belief that the policies of the UBP is still being played on Bahamians by both the PLP and FNM Governments, especially in the area technology and tourism – these are no go areas for black Bahamian men. It would be interesting to get a list of Bahamians who has gotten pushed aside then seeking approval for business ventures and services in the Bahamas.
...if the ID document is not ISO 18013-3 compliance its a waste of time - just ask Target (Target credit card breach affects 40 million accounts) ...because of old out dated swipe technology.
With the establishing of a National IDenti Authority: a neutral, independent authority (The National Identity Issuance Authority of The Bahamas), legislated by Government to produce all IDenti Documents. ...Security Officers, ISPS credentials, Government Works e.g.
The Bahamas would join a short list of countries who now enjoy the security of sterilizing their country, communities and streets of persons with no legal right of movement, after the introduction of a National Identification Card Program.
A Bahamian company presented a proposal (in 2004) to produce a highly secured and tamper-proof National IDentiCard or Driver’s License that can be used as a local or regional travel document.
Accepted, the document can also be used for short visits to the United States, Canada and in the EU, Polycarbonate cards will be used to produce the documents to ISO 18013-3 compliance (Machine-readable technologies for mobile verification) and include smart chip technology, biometric and laser engrave security elements.
The identity card not only represents a modern, secure and portable sovereign document ; but will significantly improve the identification of persons e.g. within our borders. The new identity card can integrate with other system used by law enforcement and to control access in secure areas or verification.

Guest to my country should respect for the sovereign institutions in my country.
