Turin, July 24, 1990

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Kissinger,

I am very sorry to have waited so long to write to you.

Before going on, I please you to forgive me for my awful
written English and for my mistakes.

Besides, I am typewriting it down since, I remember that
you, Mr. Henry, wondered where I had learnt to write.

In this brief letter I just wanted to tell you how much I
think of you and, even if you won't believe me, how much
I miss you and that I always remember my days with you
with a great joy.

I hoped to have the chance to see you again in a very
short time, but, unfortunately, my summer programs have
changed and I won't be able to be in USA in August as
planned before.

Anyway I hope to meet you again and to know David and
Emilia (Do you think she will agree to spend some of her
precious time with me?) another time.

Since you left, after four days off, I started to work in
my new office at the Fiat Research Center.

During these days I am seeing a lot of persons and
studying many materials, trying to understand what I am
going to be appointed for. In fact, at the moment, it's
not very clear yet for me.

In August I will have two weeks of vacations and, since I
feel very tired, I will spend them sleeping on a beach in
Kenya, at Malindi.

I hope that everything is fine for you and your family
and to see you two as soon as possible, in USA or in
Italy.

My best regards.

P.S.: Roberto just called me yesterday and pleased me to
send you his best regards and wishes.

ORGANIZA REAL CLUB DEPORTIVO ESPAÑOL

Barcelona, 29 November 1990

Dear Mr. Kissinger,

The Royal Spanish Sports Club in Barcelona is one of the most historic clubs in football. Amongst its ranks we can mention the President of the International Olympic Committee, Mr. Juan Antonio Samaranch and Mr. Pablo Porta from the management team of Joao Havelange in the F.I.F.A., both of whom have been club directors, and are still members.

The club is now celebrating its 90th anniversary. Given that this coincides with the 90s decade, which will no doubt lead to in-depth changes in the football scene in general, we have decided to organise a series of prestigious commemorative events, amongst which we would like to mention the National Football Congress, to be held on the 21st and 22nd of the forthcoming month of January, in the Palacio de Pedralbes in Barcelona.

The President of the International Olympic Committee, Mr. Juan Antonio Samaranch, the President of the F.I.F.A., Mr. Joao Havelange and the General Secretary, Joseph S. Blatter have all confirmed their attendance as well as all the football managers and the players', referees' and trainers' associations in Spain who will join in the round tables and presentations of papers.

All the first, second and third division clubs, amateur clubs, members, collectives, trainers, referees and footballers have been gathered together for the Congress. We therefore feel that the event will prove to be an important representation of football in Spain.

Suite 1021
1800 K Street, N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20006

Dear Dr. Kissinger:

I was genuinely pleased to see you and visit with you at Carolyn Farb's home in Houston, Texas on November 5, 1990. When I gave you my card you asked what Aerobus was and I explained that it was an overhead people mover transportation system that I own.

I am still in the process of trying to finance a demonstration test facility. I have previously written to you on September 25, 1989 concerning the Aerobus system and the prospects in China. I sent you a brochure, a tape and some other material at that time, now realizing that you may have disposed of this material I am enclosing a brochure to help refresh your memory. There have been some recent interesting developments and we may be able to start construction of a system in China in the near future.

Mrs. Parks and I would be happy to have you and your wife as our guests sometime this winter. We have two guests houses, separate from the main house, at the Vintage Club in Indian Wells, California with ready access to a swimming pool and a sauna room. The entire backyard is walled in to allow the utmost in privacy. Additionally you would have full access to all the amenities of the club. Please communicate with my office if you are interested.

Kindest personal regards.

# AEROBUS
BY PARKS

AEROBUS by Parks is an overhead transportation system which utilizes a suspended cable arrangement as a patented overhead guideway system for moving people and freight... economically, quietly, without pollution and above all safely. The system is based on a new creative application of cable technology developed by the Swiss, together with practical engineering.

## History of the AEROBUS

The AEROBUS was originally developed by AEROBUS Engineering Ltd. of Switzerland and its principal inventor Gerhard Mueller. Mueller was the designer and manufacturer of ropeway systems which are installed and operate worldwide. In 1970, Mueller and his company built a prototype AEROBUS System in Zurich, Switzerland, to demonstrate the feasibility and practicality of the AEROBUS overhead transportation system as a people mover.

**Second Generation:** In 1975 a second generation system was built in Mannheim, Germany, as a part of a horticultural exposition. During the six months the show was open, eight AEROBUS vehicles carried over 2.5 million passengers without interruption or incident over a two-mile route through the city center and across the Neckar River.

**Third Generation:** Dietlekon, Switzerland, was the site for the third generation system. The objective of the Dietlekon operation was to develop and test evolutionary improvements resulting from operational data obtained during the Mannheim AEROBUS experience.

**Fourth Generation:** In 1983, a Swiss firm, Vevey Engineering Works Ltd. acquired the manufacturing rights and patents for the AEROBUS System. Vevey, an internationally known manufacturer of transportation equipment such as railway coaches and tram cars, planned to test an improved fourth generation AEROBUS System to be installed at Kuala Lampur. However, the three-mile system, which incorporated an updated station and control configurations, has not yet been initiated pending financing.

**Fifth Generation:** In April 1987, FRED PARKS, a Houston attorney, purchased the patents and technology to the AEROBUS System from Vevey Engineering and is now forming companies to continue updating and improving the system's design and to market AEROBUS internationally. The fifth generation by Parks will be

[L]

constructed as a test track to: (1) thoroughly test the latest **AEROBUS System**, develop evolutionary design updates; and, (2) to serve as full-sized demonstration for prospective private and government clients.

The system is capable of quietly moving cars with capacities up to 180 passengers, at speeds up to 40 miles per hour (64 km/hour), operating efficiently and dependably in a pollution-free manner. The system can be automated or manually controlled.

A special version of the **AEROBUS System** can be applied to support the movement of shipborne containers at crowded harbor and dock facilities. The system can be built to operate manually or semi-automatically and can perform such tasks as moving containers to and from dockside to designated storage areas and moving containers to and from truck and railroad loading depots.

## How AEROBUS Works

Thanks to a patented guideway suspension system, **individual electrically powered cars** travel on cables across standard spans of up to 600 feet (200 meters) which are supported by pylons. **Spans as long as 4000 feet (1,200 meters)** can be implemented to cross special obstacles. The cable suspended overhead guideway uses the weight of the vehicles passing over it to force the track into a horizontal position for smooth trestle passage without noticeable bumps or sways at speeds up to 40 mph (64 km/h). The guideway structure of the **AEROBUS** is comprised of two different sets of cables: suspension and runway cables interconnected by vertical hanger cables.

Installations can be done as single lane or double lane lines. You can build a **system of any length** with any number of main or intermediate stations. It can follow the contours of existing streets, and because of its long span the **AEROBUS right-of-way requirements are minimized** and it can span rivers, canals, bays and other obstacles. The system utilizes rail similar to monorail where curves or station

platforms are required, making a smooth transition from cable to rail. Network versions of the system can also be built using special **AEROBUS** operational switches.

The articulated **AEROBUS** vehicle consists of standardized body sections that will accommodate - 100, 150 or 180 people.

The sections are designed to negotiate curves and changes in grade allowing maximum flexibility for system integration into existing urban environments.

## Construction and Erection

After the route has been determined and the topographic and geological surveys and studies completed, the engineering for an **AEROBUS System** can usually be completed within six months time.

With the engineering in-hand, construction of the pylon foundations, end anchors, intermediate and major terminals can begin.

**AEROBUS** by Parks is really a transportation system that does not congest the streets below nor contaminate the air. The cost of right-of-way, construction, and operation is less than that for light rail systems; therefore, **Aerobus is cost effective, easy to install, requires less space for pylons and supports and can be installed in less time than light rail systems.**

**AEROBUS** by Parks... the overhead transportation system for moving people... moving freight and cargo.

AEROBUS
BY PARKS

A fully tested, electrically propelled transit system – **AEROBUS** provides a safe, comfortable ride. Because of its automation, **AEROBUS** operates on a dependable schedule and provides high quality service. During peak hours, **AEROBUS** can operate with headway of one and one-half minutes at a maximum speed of 40 mph. The fixed guideway is suspended from ropeways which are supported by pylons. Because

the pylons can be stationed up to 4,000 feet apart, the **AEROBUS** can span rivers, lakes and other obstacles requiring little right-of-way. The unique, cable, monorail type system allows **AEROBUS** to curve to follow the contours of streets. Truly a railroad in the sky that does not contaminate the air nor congest the streets below. All quiet and pollution free and importantly cost effective.
