Just had a great talk with Tony K of BLTA, who has always been straight up with me as a long-term investor. People at the Company are pretty jazzed as of late, although respectful of Igor's passing. As I posted way early this morning, we have a new CEO and still stable & competent management team. And while they miss Igor, they are going to be doing things much differently that Igor opposed and had final say.
There will be a coordinated press release protocol in place now, and factual, "non-fluff" updates will be issued to shareholders via press release whenever prudent. Igor was a big obstructionist on this very issue. Heard it over and over through the years. Company is also being more aggressive with FAA and broadening communication channels. Can only help! These are but a few changes and big improvements that we can expect going forward.
He remains optimistic while the Company awaits FAA decisions, but as I predicted earlier, the 15th according to Tony is not a date written in stone. So no, if we wake up Monday morning with no news, the Company will NOT turn into dust!
As I wrote Monday morning, I think that now that Igor is gone, we have a whole new future and better prospects going forward. And based upon trading this week, I may not be alone in thinking that...
GLTA!
