EXHIBIT 99.1 Global Aircraft Solutions, Inc. Announces $12,000,000 Debt Facility TUCSON, Ariz.--December 13, 2005--Global Aircraft Solutions, Inc. (OTC BB: GACF) today announced that it has successfully negotiated an increase of its credit facility from $2,500,000 to $12,000,000 with its existing bank. The bank is an affiliate of a diversified financial services corporation headquartered in Milwaukee, Wis., with $43.5 billion in assets. This credit facility bears an interest rate of 3.0% per annum in excess of the applicable LIBOR rate, secured by a first priority lien on the personal property of GACF and their subsidiaries Hamilton Aerospace and World Jet. The term of the Line of Credit expires on October 31, 2007 when the entire unpaid principal balance and accrued and unpaid interest is due and payable. The new $12,000,000 line of credit consists of two components: a $5,000,000 operating line of credit and a $7,000,000 line of credit for use in support of GACF's aircraft trading activities. Also, Global's wholly owned subsidiary, Hamilton Aerospace Technologies, is proud to announce that it has been awarded, for the third consecutive year, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) "Diamond Award" for maintenance training. The Diamond Award is the FAA's highest maintenance honor, designed to encourage aviation maintenance technicians and their employers to participate in initial and recurrent training programs. Ian Herman, Chairman and CEO of both Global Aircraft Solutions and Hamilton Aerospace, stated, "Although the $5,000,000 operating line of credit will provide working capital to help both of Global's wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hamilton Aerospace and World Jet, to achieve our revenue and earning growth goals, we anticipate that the new $7,000,000 aircraft trading line of credit will have an even more significant positive impact on both our top and bottom line results. In past aircraft trading deals we often had to act as an agent utilizing capital provided by our customers. This generally limited our gross margins to 3% to 5% of the value of the transaction. Our new aircraft trading line of credit will allow GACF to act as the principal in our aircraft trading transactions, which will enable Global to garner margins generally closer to the 20% to 30% range on these quick turning transactions."
