Eye - they may be trying to get "speedy cooperation" but another 45 days for the next steps does not even close to qualify for that pace.  I think that by your tone, you agree.   I understand that we all believe that Balia will perform, But even you, as an industry insider, must be getting tired of rationalizing the Actions and Ice Age speed of the FAA.  I appreciate it, but I can not wait for the day you do the 180 and blast them for their overwhelming incompetence in comparison to some of their peers you have interacted.  I want front row seats...  You are spring loaded.

Funny, you would think that with a senator or two hanging over their head, they would be moving faster, then again maybe they are no longer getting that kind of pressure - from Govt or Baltia officials.

BY the way - 45 days gets us to Labor day, which we know is another big week of work, so maybe end of September, with a February 2013 launch?
