I'll respond to that.
I think that's a healthy skepticism, which is why we're not advocating a wholesale investment in infrastructure for a network of airships prior to providing additional proof. We want to see that, because although the technology holds much promise, and I'm sure everyone on this committee can see the potential benefits, sometimes there's a long distance between the potential benefits and actual benefits. So we're looking to do incremental investment on a relatively small scale to prove that we're not going down a path and making additional investments that are going nowhere.
But ultimately, if the demonstration phase does work and the performance of the air vehicle and the operational cost performance particularly—and obviously from a business point of view that is very important to us—are proven to be accurate, then all of the other stuff will flow. The customers will flow. The market will get developed. There will be justification for government to invest in infrastructure to support the industry. Jobs will be created, and tax revenues will flow into the treasury. All those things will occur.
But let's be realistic and consider if it might not work. So let's not make oversized investments until we actually prove this thing is real.
