Troyal, in this world there are 3 types: givers, givers & takers, and takers. Having an opinion and some questions is perfectly fine, but constantly taking without giving anything back (you know exactly what I'm referring to) leads to people getting infuriated. If you have questions, good. But don't expect to be spoon fed information if the purpose is for deceitful misinterpretation....but we've had this discussion already, and it's not worth repeating.
We know for certain that there are a few tasks remaining:
1) mini evac
2) tabletop
3) proving flights
4) Russian approval of certification
5) ticket sales/advertising
6) Inaugural flight
Mixed in with this is all the administrative crap that we never hear about. WHEN any of the above will happen is anyone's guess, but from the SH meeting, it seems the company wants to be certified this year with first flight by January 1st, 2015. This is the most current information anyone has. My guess about mini evac and tabletop is that they'll be completed within the next 2 weeks, as they're literally the next two things Baltia has to do before moving on, followed by proving flights before first week of December (and issuance of certificate by mid December).
