The Press Release was written to not draw much attention because tensions between Russia and US are uneasy - they don't want our agreements jeopardised..
Price dropped becasuse normal retail investors didn't understand the significance of the PR also. The company has put this up showing where we're at now - look at top... completed/remaining.
2-3 more months maybe before and we'll be doing the 4 test flights... We got our drivers permit the otherday for FAA to ride along... Manuals can't be declined they've been accepted, now only tweaked as needed.
"Use your head for something else besides a hatrack!" When I was a kid, that's what my Dad used to tell me if I did or said something really stupid.
Don't you guys pay ANY attention to the news? The international political news? The news about what's going on right now between the US and Russia? Right now, Putin is mad as hell at the US for the Magnitsky Act that Obama signed in December. Putin has so far already taken 2 retaliatory actions. (Which boosted his popularity in Russia.) He has cancelled child adoptions by Americans and just signed a law that imposes sanctions on 18 Americans (same number as the 18 Russians sanctioned in the Magnitsky Act).
Imagine if Putin heard that a new fledgling American airline was seeking to start the only non-stop service between New York and St. Petersburg. If you were Putin, what would you do? What would play best to your domestic audience right now? Get Aeroflot to do it first, or just block the Americans? Your choice, President Putin.
HOWEVER, both countries, for a host of very important reasons, want to get this dust up behind them ASAP.
READ THE DAMN NEWSPAPERS, GUYS and GALS!
The dust up will be behind us just about the time Baltia is ready to do proving flights. Then the time will be ripe.
For this and a few other obvious reasons, this is absolutely the worst possible time for Baltia to make a big splash with PR. IMHO, Baltia knows EXACTLY what it is doing. Now is the time for Baltia to keep its head down - way down - and stay tightly focused on the business at hand: getting certified by the FAA.
Incidently, nobody at Baltia told me this. It's just obvious.
So guys, "Use your heads for something else besides hatracks!" Please!
P.S. - better not say anything about this in the open world, or Weaseldawg will phone Putin to tell him about Baltia! lol
