Every day we're one day closer... to death! We're also one day closer to this "SHM". Lets see which comes first.
I'm comin' Igor, this is the big one!!!
Hahahahaha!!!!!

A few weeks?!?!?! More like a few years!!!!!!
AND I QUOTE:
"We all know that the SHM is somewhere on the horizon, and that it has to land somewhere close to April 19th....give or take a few weeks. "
Lets wait a month and adjust our rhetoric, bet on it!
Bet on it!!! Hahahahaha!!!!!!!!!! *ahem*

Fearless leader planted the seed back on April 6th that the SHM isn't happening on time. My money's on it not happening at all. Same old rhetoric over the past 7 years. He has also replaced Godspeed with an annoying amount of ellipses. If there's one thing that really gets my goat, it's too many ellipses. Use 3 and be done with it!
...
AND I QUOTE:
"Ok, I too would like to hear soon about the date for the SHM, but I very seriously doubt we should expect that April 19th date. 4 months ago that was the target date, but I'm certain by now the date has moved.
May I also suggest that in my opinion, the longer the delay, the better. With the dynamite team Tony has put together (including the latest entry, Felix Malitsky), I'm guessing they are just piling up the good news and making sure everything is in place to make the upcoming SHM the best it could possibly be.
I'm certain Tony would delay the SHM another few days or a week if it meant he could add more powder to the pan.
Just keep in mind that the better the SHM, the higher the stock rockets thereafter.
I've been here a little over 7 years. I can wait a few extra days or weeks to become a multi millionaire....................."
You're better than that! I would hope. I'm of the opinion that my reply below won't make any difference.
==================
Fact - the 10-K is not late because it's not due.
>> it is past due (past due means late)
Fact - the company you're referring to (Baltia) doesn't exist anymore, as the current company is undergoing rebranding/restructuring.
>> as of today it still exists, derp! Unless you are doing the work yourself, you can't state what they're currently doing as fact. You can assume.
Fact - The new company is going to do a R/S at the right time to bring the O/S to a reasonable level.
>> it may have been communicated but it's far from a fact that they're going to do it at the right time or even do it at all. Timing is subjective.
Fact - there's a shareholders meeting coming VERY soon, that isn't even required. They just want to present the new company's image and show that this is going to be a real airline.
>> sheer opinion. You can't speak to what they want to do and "VERY soon" is subjective irrespective of the emphasis you try and put on it.
Fact - The FAA rescinded their letter, now we can continue certification.
>> closer to a fact, cngrats
Fact - The board of directors is better now than it ever was, with billions of dollars managed among the current members.
>> sheer opinion, some would claim it was better than ever when Connie was on the board or during Igor's tenure.
Fact - There are ten new N-numbers registered to the new company.
>> congrats, a fact
Fact - Notice how the corporate address on recent SEC filings isn't at JFK? Take the hint.
>> congrats, a fact. You may want to leave off the commentary, it can easily change a fact to an opinion.
Fact - NO dilution since Tony became President.
Fact - NO increase in O/S since Tony became President.
>> President for 6 months, give it time
Fact - Funding the remainder of certification has proven to be easy for the company.
>> speculation as to how easy something is. No details since no financials
Fact - The company is actively working on becoming current on their filings.
>> assumption, can't be stated as fact unless it's something you're actively working on
Fact - George Kelsey, Kalitta's attorney, is the company's legal counsel.
>> possibly a fact
Fact - We have SEC, FAA, and business attorneys working on multiple aspects of the company.
>> proof? What are their names and what specifically are they working on?
Fact - We have an LOI for a Boeing 767 that can be contracted at any time.
>> assumption that it can be contracted at any time, they may have other hurdles or no intention at all of leasing. This could be a ploy so the PP holders can get out. If I were a PP holder I'd be unloading. My opinion.
Fact - The new airline isn't focusing on just St. Petersburg. They want to be an internationally recognized company that flies to numerous underserved destinations.
>> they could be focused on their toes. You can't state this as fact. What's communicated can't be taken as fact. You could restate it as "in a letter on xxx date the company said xxx"
Fact - The company's President has real business experience, and an MBA from Fordham University. He has worked in asset and wealth management for many years and understands the aviation business.
>> he also lost his house. He's real good with money. Part fact and part opinion.
Fact - The company's largest shareholder is touting how incredible the new company is. When a whale with millions invested is saying this is going to be a life-changing company, best to listen.
>> opinion. The real fact here is that he has been repeating the same rhetoric for years. That's proveable because you can simplly lookup the posts from years ago.

Fun fact, opinions aren't facts.
You can believe, assume and speculate until the cows come home. It doesn't make them facts.
Moo.

Dead cat bounce.
Try calculating the loss from the high over the past 30 years? It's a lot more than 3,000%. I'm in at 1.7c and the losses at .0002 were ridiculous. 9,000%?! Only holding because it's toilet paper and continues to be toilet paper.
Catching a falling knife is foolish but id you were lucky enough to ride the wave don't make the mistake of holding.
Put out whatever numbers you want to support your position. I can do the same.
That being said, lets hope for the best for Urinal Sandwich Airlines so I can get out with a minor loss.

Apple, Amazon … Sigma: Small Santa Fe software firm joins NASDAQ

By Bruce Krasnow
The New Mexican | Updated 5 hours ago
Mark J. Cola will never be as well known as tech executives Jeff Bezos or Tim Cook.
But as president and chief executive of a small company in Santa Fe, Cola’s Sigma Labs can now share something with Amazon and Apple — the stock of his company is now part of the same New York-based exchange as the biggest, most-profitable companies in the world.
For Sigma, a software and 3-D manufacturing firm with 12 employees housed at the Santa Fe Business Incubator off Airport Road, the transformation into a higher-profile firm with a global footprint has taken just six years.
Since 2010, Sigma had been a small public company with a few hundred shareholders trading on an over-the-counter platform. Moving its shares to the NASDAQ gives it a whole new range of exposure that can now be considered by institutional investors, mutual funds that have policies that restrict its equity holdings to large exchanges such as NASDAQ and the New York Stock Exchange. Such exchanges offer instant pricing and more liquidity to buy and sell company shares with more transparency.
“It opens Sigma to much broader exposure,” Cola said.
The only other company based in New Mexico with stock listed on a major exchange is PNM Resources, the electric utility with $1.4 billion in revenue that provides services to some 510,000 customers in Texas and New Mexico.
Before the listing, Sigma also raised $5.8 million in new money that will be used for product expansion.
He hopes that exposure and new capital will bring more affirmation with what Sigma is able to do with its specialized software that offers continuous feedback of 3-D manufacturing, ensuring a higher level of design with fewer faults, Cola said.
Citing industry data in its annual report, filed March 31, Sigma said the sale of additive manufacturing products and services is expected to grow from $8.8 billion worldwide in 2017 to $26.5 billion in 2021.
Sigma already has agreements in countries known for precision manufacturing, such as the Netherlands and Germany, but he see his greatest growth potential in the United States. Cola sees Sigma well positioned to take advantage of recent political trends from a new administration in Washington, D.C., that seeks to boost spending in defense and offer more incentives to grow manufacturing jobs in the United States.
But firms competing for those contracts will have to deliver with less cost and better efficiency.
The word is slowly getting out.
Since the end of 2016, Sigma announced agreement with Aerojet Rocketdyne, Honeywell, Pratt & Whitney as well as two smaller firms — Jaguar of Albuquerque, which specializes in advanced manufacturing for components in aerospace and defense, and Morf3D, a California company that specializes in additive engineering and manufacturing with metals that works on products in the aircraft, space, medical and automotive industries.
Cola added Sigma has refocused on three core missions.
First, Sigma offers proprietary software that manages 3-D manufacturing. It can be tooled to operate in new machines that are now being sold around the world. The code embedded in the software feeds data from the manufacturing into a monitoring loop.
In describing the process for an article in 2015, Cola said, “You can make it and inspect it at the same time. We have sensors in place monitoring the process on a layer-by-layer basis. It’s those algorithms that bring precision to parts that have to be perfect.”
Second, Sigma is offering to retrofit existing machines with its sensors and software, and believes a lot of legacy machinery can be reformulated for better 3-D work with its software and support services.
Finally, the company manufactures its own products on-site in Santa Fe by using raw metal materials such as nickel, alloy, cobalt, titanium and laser 3-D manufacturing to weld and mold parts such as those needed for airplanes, automobiles or machines.
Increasingly, Sigma is working directly with engineers from their customers to refine and build better parts, such as a new kind of engine mount for a satellite. It can also isolate a part to determine areas of stress and offer alternative designs.
The concept is called topology optimization and can result in newly designed parts that are both lighter and stronger. “The light-weighting is real important for any type of aerospace or defense product,” Cola said.
Both Cola and his founding partner, Vivek Dave, have a background in metallurgy, industrial welding, math and engineering with the national labs as well as research facilities.
Despite the company’s growth, Cola does not see moving from New Mexico. He said the state offers “tremendous advantages” over California and other places in terms of cost of living and operating expenses such as office space.
“I still think New Mexico is a great place to do manufacturing,” he said.
Sigma is considered a startup company and held its first public earnings call after the NASDAQ listing last week. It showed a continuing operating loss.
Revenue for the year that ended Dec. 31 was approximately $1 million versus $1.2 million for 2015. The company reported a higher net loss for the year of approximately $2.2 million, or 35 cents a share.
“We have incurred losses in every reporting period since we commenced business operations in 2010 and expect to continue to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future,” the company states in its required filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Hogwash! Everyone who's anyone knows that it's Fidelity's fault that Baltia is delinquent!
Until Fidelity steps up and fixes things, Baltia will continue to be delinquent (and grounded).
C'mon Fidelity, stop holding them down! Let their freak flag fly!
Regards,
Murray Winklebottom
From what we are left to assume, they will make at least 3 million in 2017. Likely more. So I'm cautiously optimistic that they won't need to dillute further.

I bet that rhe inspector's name is Fidelity because, y'know it's Fidelity's fault, nobody elses.

How DARE Fidelity hold BLTA down!!!!! How DARE they! It *is* Fidelity's fault that BLTA has been delinquent and continues to be delinquent.
How DARE they do this to this fine company! SHAME on YOU Fidelity! Shame on you indeed!
I am in complete shock and ore over this TAPESTRY OF JUSTICE!
Godspeed and stuff.

Here's another couple of lies:
They never paid back CP
They're SEC delinquent
I saw they used the fuel nozzle in the presentation.
Dot dot success or dot dot dud?
C'mon Sigma!!! Daddy needs a new beer cozy! Let's go!

kanya West, I think the stock will either go up, down or stay the same.
No charge for that prediction.

Please stop with the logic!!!! Logic has no place here!

Common sense doesn't apply. I've tried, you've tried. It's pointless.
Certainly laughable but I'm going to hope this continues to get pumped so I can get out even or at a slight loss.
I'm such an idiot for investing 17k at 1.7 cents.
Nice to see it's now worth 5k instead of 200 bucks.
Bet on it! Capiche? Godspeed.
Regards,
Murray Winklebottom
How are they going to pay for the lease, hmmmmm?!?!?! The same way they paid CP Capital? The same way some unnamed person paid his mortgage?!?!
HMMMM?!?!?!
No stone left unturned! To the highest levels of blah blah blah! All is dotted and ts crossed! Igor will get it done! Russ will get it done! Tony will get it done! <insert name here will get it done>!
Baltia 2.0 is Baltia 1.0, bet on it! Capiche? Godspeed.

Uh oh spaghetti-o's!!!!! The share price is dropping faster than my pants at a Neil Diamond concert.
I have an idea. Baltia can turn the LOI into an airplane by folding it a few times.
At least it'll fly.

I'll be smart this time and set a stop-loss if this pump continues..
Worst decision I ever made -- aside from marrying my ex-wife Sheila. DAMN YOU SHEILA!!!! DAMN YOU TO HELL AND BACK!

If I'm able to sell this POS for a small loss in another 4 weeks, perfect. Just need this to get pumped back up to 1.5c.
Bet on it.
