When I first heard about Baltia about seven years ago from my nephew I decided to take a flyer with a meager investment of 50,000 shares at 7 cents/share. I liked their business plan but didn't realize the time and hurdles that they would have to overcome in the future. As they slowly progressed it started to become evident that this company had some dynamic and knowledgeable people at the helm so my investments slowly grew at a modest rate. I was always impressed with management's willinness to talk with a small investor like me who had not even bought pp shares from the company. When they purchased their first airplane I knew they were serious about making their dream come true. After painting N706BL with their logo I was then assured success was inevetable. When the sp droped down to .008 cents I bought a serious quantity on the open market and it dropped my average down to .017 cents/share. Today they have a passenger ready airplane and have overcome the most difficult hurdles in acquiring FAA Airline Certification. With only small baby steps away from the completion of certification and a reportedly nice bankroll of ready cash on hand I have purchased several bottles of good champaign to share with all my family and friends that have also become Baltia investors.
