LIVERMORE, CA–( EMWNews – April 1, 2008) – Power Air Corporation (OTCBB: PWAC), the Zinc

power company, today announced further changes and new additions to its

executive management team, all of whom will now be centralized in the

Company’s corporate headquarters in Livermore.

As noted in a related Form 8-K recently filed with the U.S. Securities and

Exchange Committee, until such time as the formal CEO search is

successfully concluded, the Board of Directors appointed H. Dean Haley,

founder and Chairman of the Board, to the Chief Executive Officer post. In

addition, Don Prest, who had served as the Company’s Chief Financial

Officer operating out of Vancouver, B.C., resigned from Power Air in late

January. The Board appointed Alan G. Campbell as Interim CFO, replacing

Prest, who left to focus solely on his professional interests at Manning

Elliott LLP where he has served as Assurance Partner since 1983.

In addition, Power Air reported that Dr. Al Sylwester, a long standing

technology advisor to the Company and a member of the Board of Directors,

has joined the senior executive team as Vice President and Chief Technology

Officer, responsible for overseeing the Company’s product development

efforts. Dr. Sylwester will report directly to Haley.

“As we prepare to transition from a development stage company into a fully

operational, revenue generating organization, given the impending

commercialization of our ZPAC 40 Zinc Air Powerpack, we felt it was

essential to centralize key members of our management team all under one

roof in Livermore so that we are able to optimize mission critical

initiatives more efficiently. We’d like to thank Don for his financial

leadership over the past several years and wish him continued success with

his audit and accounting practice,” stated Haley.

Continuing, Haley noted, “We are delighted to welcome Alan as our new

Interim CFO, whose financial accounting expertise will serve Power Air well

as we persist in executing our exciting business plan. Moreover, Al’s

expanding role with our Company is already having positive impact on the

direction and execution of our short and long term product development

roadmaps.”
