Yes sir...we know that's how they start. With this float literally one person can easily move it...I had chased it up on my self in the past. Makes it tough to accumulate size with no one selling anything on the bid. I couldn't even imagine what might happen if even just 10 or 20 people tried to get in at the same time let alone 50 or 100 or more.
I think a successful launch with WIZZ might quickly open up peoples eyes to start looking into this industry and how big this could potentially be.
No guarantees of course, but an interesting approach to airline connectivity.
I like to go back and read Ron's messages from time to time...like this one...helps keep it all in perspective.

You are correct, we are strange, and it is weird that I post on this forum. Fact is, to attempt what we are trying to do, you have to be a bit odd.
The reason I like this forum is, it has most things published on us, so I point shareholders to it.
So, to clarify, we do not have a PR firm. Been there done that and seen what premature PR results from it. Our rationale is, once we prove our system with a customer, the PR will take care of itself as we will have changed the inflight connectivity business.
The previous comment is correct, you would need a lot of patience to persevere with us and I can appreciate general investors will get sick of us. It’s been 9 years since I floated the original concept which is even hard for me to comprehend. What you need to bear in mind is, we are trying to do to inflight Wi-Fi, what WhatsApp did to SMS. WhatsApp did not replace SMS, they just created a more cost effective and different way of sending messages which appealed to a cost-conscious market. Not dissimilar to our plan. Difference is, they had no revenue model we do. Every commercial component of our new platform has evolved from previous major airline programs we have implemented. Add to that, we have the Bizjet version of it called CHiiMP come online in Europe and North America in January and another this month.
So, while we are not where we would like to be, our timing appears to be OK as the new Iridium Next satellite constellation which is what we leverage off, was only completed last month. (2 years behind schedule)
Finally, the challenge of changing an industries thinking is not simple, but after a year on the speaking/show circuit and talking to many low-cost airlines we are starting to gain some traction.
Obviously, it will be a lot clearer once the airline system is operational and that's our current focus.
