"You see John....all they (the bashers) want is an audience ..................Let's talk on Monday.....I haven't spoken with Igor much.....all I know is that they (Baltia) were still waiting for the two guys to be approved.....everything with the FAA takes weeks, months and years, not seconds, hours or days. It's extremely frustrating and there isn't much we can do about it. I'll keep you posted.............." - anonymous -
At this point one thing is for sure, everyone is disappointed. EVERYONE expected things to happen a lot sooner. Shit happens. Monday morning, one of my managers was supposed to return from vacation and open one of the stores at 7:30 AM. She called today....her daughter is sick in the hospital (in Peru) and won't get released in time for the manager to be back to work till Wed. Shit happens.
We all made plans. Some of us wanted to use profits to prevent a short sale. Some wanted to up their investments in another stock. Others wanted to expand their current dwelling or purchase a new one. Some of us just needed a little extra capital to run their businesses. Maybe someone wanted to retire and open the gym they always dreamed of. Rest assured...we all had plans.....and all of our plans have been post-poned....and we are all disappointed.....
However....even though we are not where we wanted to be at this time, I still feel quite confident we will get there...sooner or later. No...I don't see .80 like I was told 2 1/2 years ago when I first invested.....maybe not even .20.....but I am still hoping for something in the teens. At any rate...I don't think we will lose it all........not when we are so close.....we just won't make the killing we all dreamed of. Still......a 500% plus return...in this economy...isn't something to laugh at........
We have among us a very wealthy investor who has government contracts with the airforce...I believe he builds runways.......and he is probably bigger than all of us combined......and he is still here....and still investing....and he believes....
We have 30 highly experienced and very qualified people at Baltia who have invested their time and their lives and their dreams and their hopes....put their families and their houses and their lives on the line .....and they still believe.....and they have more to lose than any one of us do....
You don't create 10,000 pages of manuals, rent office space here and abroad, buy a plane, submit yourself to the scrutiny of the Federal Government, write a letter complaining about the inefficiencies of the FAA, get US and NY State Senators involved, and so much more that we can't even begin to imagine.........if you are scammming, if you have no intentions of launching an airline, or if your only intention is to raise money by selling shares.......
No.....if you plan on scamming someone, the best thing to do is to avoid the eyes of the government, fly low under the radar, spend as little of the capital accumulated as possible, and limit the number of cohorts you have working with you...........
I can't vouch for his competency....not yet.....but (for me) all signs point to the fact that Igor wants to get N706BL in the air..........IMHO...............
Igor has over 500 million shares.....if the stock goes to 20 cents per share....that's 100 million dollars. Right now.....he is soooooooo close....closer than ever before....do you think he isn't more anxious than we are to see this happen?
Barry has over 75 million shares. All the employees at Baltia have millions of shares....accumulated over the years either by purchase or as part of their salary....do you think they and their spouses don't want to see this happen?
Rest assured...as much as we shareholders want to see it happen ...there are 30 people working for Baltia that want to see it happen a hundred times more than any one of us......their spouses and their families and their lives depend on it....
So hang in there. Sit tight. It will happen....EVERYONE is pushing for it.....Senators, employees, stockholders, friends, family......even some of the workers at the FAA....EVERYONE (well....maybe not weaseldawg and hazesky...but everyone else).....so it will happen.......just can't say when as of yet.............
You see...shit happens.....but today Baltia is closer than ever....and every day Baltia gets a little closer. Maybe tomorrow it will be one step back, but the day after it will be two steps forward.
If you truly look at the history and the people and the progress, you can see that everyone involved is giving 100% to get Baltia to fly.....from the employees to the stockholders to the families and friends to the Senators.....even to the FAA......we are all working towards the same goal.......just can't say when.
Shit happens...but we will deal with it...and we will get there.......and it is disappointing, and it is frustrating, and it is aggravating.....
But truth be told......time will tell.........
...................we are not a bunch of fu$king woosies............
(Sorry Pipa.....couldn't resist................that statement so clearly expresses the frustrations that have bottled up and that we are all feeling right about now ......)
