We are going on almost a month now with no news. I would think they had something to say by now?

gtewillwin, if someone is talking to the company, maybe they could ask if we could get any information. Unfortunately, we are a non-reporting company at this point, and we really don't have any significant revenues aside from Centerline (thank heavens for Centerline). I would very much like to know something about our current business plan. We have heard of so many things, then poof, nothing, we never hear about it again. I am still holding, but this is BS, I will not hold forever. It really seems that the only time we get information is when the majority of investors go up to or beyond their threshold, and are ready to sell. This, IMO, is not the way to run things. I would love to be a rabidly loyal shareholder again, I just need something to hold on to. There are supposed to be a lot of things happening with the company, i.e. Germany, VozBrazil, Mexico pilot, strat, Centerline, etc. Why is the company so quiet? The last excuse was because of the Amex hearing, what is it now? No one is parsing our PR's except for us, I see no valid excuse for this quiet period. The SEC has nothing against factual information. JMO.

Sincerely,

gtewillwin,

RE: Sanswire 1,

Sansire One was dismantled when they made the move to Palmdale. What they learned from test results are all that survived. I have confirmed this on several occasions with management over the last year. The statement below seemed quite clear to me that Sanswire 1 was history and everything they learned would be applied to Sanswire 2..


(from August 2nd, 2005)
"On the technological front, we have been the fortunate beneficiaries of a range of new developments - some derived from our in-house testing activities and others acquired from the scientific community at large. These advancements in technology have allowed us to re-think and to materially enhance our design and testing program. In particular, as we have completed a variety of low-altitude, tethered float tests using our Sanswire One Airship, a number of useful improvements have been identified. This, in concert with our extensive testing, has provided several generational leaps in the materials technology and composition elements of our prototype. Of significant importance, given the weight-to-lift ratios which are fundamental to the operational physics of our Airship, we recently embraced the development of a new, very-light-weight, carbon-fiber, composite material which will allow us to construct current and future airships in a way, and at a pace, which will substantially reduce our time-to-market, while dramatically improving our operating efficiencies. This composite construction will allow for greater platform strength, durability and payload capacities. This new carbon-fiber infrastructure will reduce our operational weight by approximately 50% (thereby increasing the payload capabilities) and, ultimately, it will reduce the assembly time by a similar amount. When combining this new very-light-weight, high tensile strength, rigid frame design with the new battery and fuel cell technologies which have emerged in recent months (which will also result in dramatic improvements in power-capacity-to-weight ratios), we have concluded that the optimal strategy for getting our first commercial vehicle to market, as quickly as possible, is to immediately leap-frog from Sanswire One to Sanswire Two. This focuses all our energies, all the expertise which we have gained to date and all our resources, both financial and human, on efforts which have a clear and immediate pay-off. Sanswire Two has allowed us to "funnel" everything we have learned from Sanswire One into a timetable which will put our first commercial vehicle in the stratosphere much earlier than we had previously expected."
