Filing a 10-K within the allowed "late" period is common, and nothing to be excited about.

As far as what you can or cannot believe about your decision to invest in Baltia, try not to be so hard on yourself. It is interesting that when one makes a selection in a multiple-choice exam and then changes it, the vast majority of the time they learn that their first instinct/decision was correct.

Those who suspect that the FAA may be using this to get more $$/resources, may well be right.

Those who believe that getting a congressional member to write a letter of inquiry to the D.O.T./FAA will bring results, are spot on. By law, the Administration (FAA) must respond quickly to that inquiry, which means that they have to drop other things to meet the requirement - and they hustle. I have seen this happen multiple times, and it can be very effective.
