IRVING, TX--(Marketwire - May 14, 2009) - MP2 Technologies (MP2) (PINKSHEETS: [ MPTO ]) announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, Weatherly Aircraft Nevada, Inc. (Weatherly), which initiated its parts and services business at the beginning of May 2009, has had a stronger than expected response from the existing customer base of Weatherly aircraft owners. Weatherly stated that their newly established customer service group has generated a parts order backlog of over $100,000 in just two weeks. The program is designed to establish relationships with existing Weatherly aircraft owners and build a communications channel to service their current needs as well as receive feedback about future requirements. Weatherly further stated that this campaign has also produced several inquires for new aircraft that it believes will turn into firm orders in the near future and that the program is confirming its previous projections related to pricing and pent up demand for new aircraft.

Richard Corline, CEO of Weatherly, stated, "We are pleased that our business planning assumptions are being proved out and in several cases exceeded. We have just begun to scratch the surface of the existing market for our parts and planes and feel that as we continue this campaign, we will have a solid production backlog for the years ahead."

In an unrelated announcement regarding funding for the company, Weatherly stated that several new investments had been made in the Company in the last week through its current Offering and that prospects were very good for additional debt and equity funding over the next quarter.
