On the whole it does sound like you had a good vibe from the contact. I think it is important to hear of DF's passion for what he is doing and how that, combined with informed and experienced partners can move things forward. This whole thing feels like the past six months, with the move and the loss of the PHR in ground at SJC, has been a trip to the pits to get a refit and inflicted a painful hit on the momentum of the company. I sense there is eagerness to get back into the race and look forward to feeling the excitement of last August and September.
I hope BEHL can pull things together, come out and make up for lost time. It's still early.

$1 was supposed to have already happened but then so were all the acquisitions. Of course, I am still here wishing I had more money to buy more shares, so is this about me or about Dean? I am not sure anyone really knows why this process is taking so long and remaining so mysterious. It feels like all that is left is guessing and speculation and maybe the idea is to wean out the weak and make people second guess until they fold their hands, or maybe it is just what they say, a process that just takes time. Patience is a virtue but in this case it is costing money- Let's hope it is worth the wait.
Once the acquistions are done, all this will be academic. The idea was expressed that this is headed for the OTC Bulletin Boards and beyond and once it goes over $.50 it will catch the interest of the big boardies and soar. At that point, even $2 is not all that unrealistic. All speculation and all very enticing, but there is also the risk that these acquisitions are so bogged down that we never see the light of day. The scam warnings come in cycles, but there is just too much evidence that something is really happening to deter me at this point.
I want to believe that this is the next Cessna, that Quasar aerospace will be a household word, but maybe I need to relax and find a new hobby.
Great Post BigBake1
Can anyone remind me what the dates of the shareholder's meeting are? It's a long shot but I would like to consider it.
Great EOD! News will only add to the boom at the end of the fuse tho.
Anyone watching this?
It seems to be slowly climbing but the future is looking 'sunny' according to my DD.
I agree and note that TARGETS are different than absolutely firm, do-or-die committments. Targets imply 'IF's. NASA has targets. The military have targets. My agency has targets. Often NASA's target dates have to be revised due to weather. The army revises their targets because the enemy moves or there are issues with the supply chain. It is always a matter of best intentions and "if things go as we expect they will, then by 4 o'clock on such and such a date we will be in Toledo...".
The targets set out in the lastest PR are consistent with a reasonable overall game plan. It looks like there has been some important learning over the last 6 months and "If things go aproximately according to plan and as hoped." the results will be quite positive.
Good luck with an attitude like that. I wish you well but realistically, I think you might regret your impulsiveness.
The memo seems to suggest that the CEO is not going to be distracted from his work on the acquistions by people who have other agendas, even shareholders. makes sense to me. If I had to answer endless phone calls or emails from every Tom Dick or Harry demanding reports on my progress, I would never get anything done. Then when people ask me why I never get anything done, what would I say that wouldn't piss them off??
Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way. For the price to be stable at .15 all depends on whether you have been naughty or nice. So if it doesn't go up we're all going to know.
Expectations are likely to be high today
Its mighty cold but the northern skies are clear
Seems like a Chicago summit has consumed all of an old man's time
Fears that the fire has gone out scream across the airwaves
Yet reassuring rumbles keep the embers burning
As we head into the darkest days of of an awfully dark year
Everyone wants to know what will happen next!
What always happens after the solstice?
Even though it is the official beginning of winter,
the days start getting longer and brighter!
And before you know it, Spring!
If your life is based on trying to push this stock to rise to a nickel by Monday, good luck.
But if you can relax and trust the fundamentals, the season for success is sure to arrive in good time.
JMHO.

Excellent post
All this hot air will be mildly interesting to review in six months or a year when this stock hits .75 or $1. I wish I had some liquidity to put in it today, but alas I am tapped out.
It is certainly interesting to see how much fury it is generating, however. I can see both sides of the battleground- those who are frustrated with what appears to be a lack of concern for shareholders and that there is manipulation of the OS happening and then those who feel that all is well and that this is just business as usual in America.
Maybe, sadly, both are true.
In any case this is clearly a company with some esteemed players involved and I doubt that it is all just smoke and mirrors. Indeed, I would say, take a deep breath and see what tomorrow brings. GLTA
Thank you for the encouragement. I hope all the longs take note.
I second that emotion.
Twas the NITE before Xmas and all through the house...
All ears are primed for news as the 15th approaches. My guess is that the day will come and go and nothing will happen, as usual.
But don't take that as bashing. It is true that these projections are more like 'best guesses' and 'wishes' than reality, and that they almost always dissappoint. In reality, there are a hundred reasons why there can be delays, especially in the land of pinks.
Someone is sure to say that if the great Dean were an honest man he would follow through for just once on something, on time. Therefore a failure to secure the loan on Tuesday the 15th is a sign from the divine that this is a sham. In anticipation of that chorus, I will probably not get too worked up. But it would be refreshing if whatever nefarious forces keep this thing from taking off were to come out into the open and be addressed with some transparency so we might all stop feeling like we are being taken for a ride.
Is there any life on this planet? It has gone up a smidgen. I was left holding the bag a long time ago and would love to decrease some of my losses. Also would love to see them succeed.
I really hope this is going to take off- I am down almost 60% since July and have been reluctant to average down because it just seems to go down down down. I would love nothing more than to see it fulfill what seems like a reasonable expression of its potential which I used to believe in based on my own DD and confirmations at the time on Ihub.
A little news would make my day. week or month, depending on how you look at it. I would be willing to put more in if I could free it up elsewhere, but still feel there is too little to go on right now.
I'll say it again. This will shoot up only when the dilution stops. The minute it hits a high point, they start the printing press and everything levels off or droops, against all odds withthe kind of volume and buzz this is generating. One way to make money I guess.
Still, this is going north or they would never get away with it. I guess we the lowly stockholders are at the mercy of the twists and legalized scullduggery of American capitalism.

I happen to agree with your assessment. There is little proof of anything but good faith on behalf of DF and his team. The hot air from bashers has been polluting this chat for so long now that many good people ahve bailed just to stop having to read the daily dose of negativity. It doesn't make sense to harp on about a stock you don't own. It would be like paying money to go to a concert of group you hate, whose music is painful to hear, just because you enjoy booing.
Such people obviously have alterior motives and if that is how they chose to make a living, well, I trust they enjoy their lives.
On a more uplifted note... once this CE is off the pinks, and things lift a little... is DF still going to China as he mentioned in the CC?... (said he might go in January to try to seal a deal if I remember correctly)... Anyone heard anything?
Anyone who owns shares, that is?
Wish you'd brought it to my atention yesterday.

This is a seasonal stock. It goes up at this time of year because it is kind of a rock star on eBay. The holiday season burst of sales is a huge indicator of its health and it is well positioned due to the economy to do even better this year than last. Every year it will grow stronger if it plays its cards right. PPS will rise along with the tide of retail spending and probably fall off in January. But who knows.
I don't think it is going to stop rising before it strikes well into penny land- maybe as high as 6 or 7 cents if we're lucky. Dilution may be a leak in the boat that slows it down, but it will keep rising for at least a couple more weeks IMHO. So hold on to your hats!
Is the SJC site still up and running or is it being demolished for the move?
Samplescave:
While I am generally a booster here, the issues you bring to bear are worthy of discussion and do not seem to get addressed.
Thank you. You have outlined concerns that have been lingering in my mind for a while. It seems like this company is just about to move across a finish line, then they move the goal posts again. This has been happening so long now that it has me wondering if there is a sincere concern for shareholders or if I am just being used as a tool, and taken as a fool, by the management.
I have to agree. The website needs to be as professional as possible.
Down over 50% but holding for the day it gets to a penny... This once felt like it had great promise. To be honest, its a clunker.
I trust all is well and this will rebound if there is any news. This company seems like a good gang with a great and innovative idea. I keep wondering what it will take for them to attract really big exposure. If they can do what it looks like they can do, they deserve to be better publicized.
I have heard so many people complain about the PRs coming out of DF's office and especially on Friday afternoons, that I say let this take its own time...
Maybe the rumor mill will be more effective over the weekend than a Friday PR.
I would say, if this is true, lets just be happy. Because if it is, and I tend to want to trust BMP, a longer fuse doesn't make the eventual explosion any less enormous. If anything, it gives us longs time to buy more!
GLTA and GO BEHL!!!!

Sound advice. But can you stay away from the screen? That is the question.
I am still in Raymond
Although my 340K may not sound like much, its all I can afford but I am hanging in there and would increase if I had the chance.

Set to explode soon as dilution ends
So do we just post questions to you on the board directly?
If so, then...
1. What is the nature of these 2 new acquisitions? Are they flight-school related or aircraft related, or can you give us any general area?
2. What is the long term vision of QASP? What might I see if I came upon QASP in 5 years and all had gone well according to plan? How about 1 year or in six months?

I am no genius in this department but when I read the PR I did not see a loan as the only device used or only possibility here. I got the impression that all the manipulations of stock price and dilution have been part of raising the necessary funding.
"....The extra $200 million dollars will allow us to close acquisitions #5&6. We have started the due diligence process on these and will be acquiring both of these in early 2010. These additional acquisitions and additional funds required to purchase them have contributed greatly to the delays we have experienced. We thank our shareholders for their patience as we progress from planning to implementation."
My intuition and 'trust meter' is quivering towards 'go with the flow'. I have seen so much red that I have been reluctant to put any more money in this but I bought a little more today.
It has been feeling a lot more positive around here the last few days. I appreciate the shift and celebrated by buying a few more shares today. I seriously think this could still hit a dollar someday, if not a lot more, and I don't think it will take two years to do so. But if it does, so be it. I am staying for the Long Haul.
Seems there is mounting frustration on this board, and with good reason. Is anyone in QASP management listening or do they care about shareholder confidence? I don't get the impression that all this hot air is filtering up to anyone or else maybe some clarification would occur.
I got in on what I believed to be trustworthy DD and faith in Dean Bradley's apparent competence. Since then its been one broken promise after another and delay after delay shrouded in mystery. And my investment has turned out to be a major loss.
What am I to think? The strategy is to pee off sharehollders who ditch and run and so you don't have to be accountable to them, and then lure in another round of suckers?
I am sorry if I seem negative. I want to be positive and am really looking for some encouragement.
I was on the CC and I agree the quality of the sound was awful and the distractions were a problem. But maybe it would make sense to publish a transcript so the salient points could be published and studied for all to see and a discussion could come out of that There was a lot of encouraging info, I thought.
But on the whole, I agree with others here that another one with RWE management and a more professional platform would be a more refreshing option.
I have been long, not really by design, hoping this would be higher by now. But if it is ever going to surge, the next month or so is the time.
Another week, another droop in price, more dilution, more promises. Ho Hum.
I so very much want to believe in this. I really want to. I really, really want to. But it is like as soon as the wind hits the sails, someone drills another hole in the boat.
PLEASE let there be integrity! Is that too much to ask? If anyone is in touch with Mr. Bradley, please convey my best wishes and my concerns. Thanks.
