IMHO. We probably won't climb too much higher in the next week. Tomorrow will probably be a minor +. I'm believing that this entire week's trading pattern will show up again next week.

Watch and see if this coming Monday's pattern reflects the following Monday's. Same thing for Tuesday, Wed, Thur, Fri. We may see that .2 next Thursday, then get ready to blast off. If Monday and Tuesday follow the trend, get ready to hold your shares and buy on Thursday.
There's only a few PR's that will significantly lift this stock.
1) FAA Approvals for flight plans + strat 2) AMEX Listing 3) ALL SYSTEMS GO For Launch(Moving Strat to Edward's, Blastoff) 4) All SYSTEMS On Strat Fully functional at desired altitudes.

Ya, I saw that too. Ouch. Was he/she trying to type .263??

God knows I'm no master trader either. Just wondering your rationale for selling now. Seems like it will go up some more before it goes down again.

I saw the strong resistence at 25-26. Considering that this stock is in a stall to say the least, I feel the probability of this stock blowing past 26 and never looking back is much lower than the probability of it not breaking 26 and taking another dip.
Nevertheless, when flipping you shouldn't expect to get the absolute dip and the absolute peak on any given swing.

I think about other launches of prototype aircraft and they really like to show off the vehicle before launch or test flight.
Just seems weird that we haven't seen it yet.
Read the last part:
Update Regarding Stratellite Production and Timeline Please be advised that we will provide a public update during the week of March 25 to March 31, 2005 concerning the launch schedule of our Stratellite prototype. Upon approval of FAA flight plans and continued vendor deliveries, we will announce a date range for launch. This date may fluctuate to accommodate for weather or other variables outside of our control.
We fully expect to have completed the airship construction within our previously announced timeline. We are unable to provide an exact date until we get closer to the scheduled launch due to the various factors such as weather, flight plan approvals, and other variables as stated above.
We maintain our commitment to the Stratellite project and anticipate releasing photographs of the completed Stratellite by the end of March, 2005.

According to Auxilia's website, DoD is hoping to have a prototype by 2006/2007. GTEL is way ahead of that schedule. Makes me wonder why we don't hear about DoD involvement with GTEL. http://www.auxiliainc.com/platforms.php

From the PRs that I have read there is DOD involement. It is just that the DOD has contracts already in place with several other large contractors for prototypes. It takes these companies and the govermant years to make progress. That is why they are silently watching from the side as to what GTEL can pull off in a hurry. If GTEL can do it the DOD will be all over it. It is the reason that GTEL created the create various Specialized Business Units (SBUs) and that the first one to get a president appointed was for the Govermental SBU.
Plus the Air Force is working with them to use their test air space. It does not get much more involved than that.
I expect that they have to be quite about some stuff because of current contract s in place.

got in at .085 and out just under .15...big mistake. I want to wait to see if this thing dips under .15 again before getting back in but with this late March announcement I dont know what it will do... I think it has some declining to do but who knows... Where do i get back in at?

This is an interesting article that seems to support an immediate need/niche for military applications for GTEL airships. It appears that with successful launch and testing.....Military contracts are there waiting for GTEL...IMHO of course.
(Source: Geneva Aerospace; issued Dec. 1, 2004)
CARROLLTON, Texas --- Blimps are back. By adding Geneva Aerospace's industry leading unmanned autonomous flight control technologies to blimps, the military soon will have more cost-effective communications capabilities in combat areas.
During Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom, the military learned its communications coverage, including the ability to keep up with convoys, was not adequate. The U.S. Army Research, Development, and Engineering Command (RDECOM), together with the Aviation and Missile Command (AMCOM) explored the following short-term answer to this problem.
The Airborne Communication Extender (ACE) airship, manufactured by ISL-Bosch Aerospace Division of Huntsville, Ala. ACE was recently tested for use by RDECOM in Lakehurst, N.J. The 125-foot blimp can operate at an altitude of 1 mile, move at speeds of up to 50 miles per hour, and stay aloft for more than 24 hours at a time without a pilot. The blimp is equipped with Geneva's avionics technologies, which include the flightTEK mission computer, as well as communications equipment.
"We have given the blimp the capability to be completely autonomous," said Max Jensen, director of sales for Geneva Aerospace, Inc. "You can give the vehicle a mission plan and launch it, and it will be completely hands-off until you recover it. Plus, with flightTEK, the blimp can be guided by an operator from the ground."
This application creates a continual communication link for the military, which currently relies on fixed radio towers or fixed-wing aircraft to provide communications coverage.
"A lot of communications use towers for relays, but they provide only a very short range," said Jim Boschma, manager of the ISL-Bosch Aerospace Division. "On the other hand, conventional manned and unmanned aircraft can stay up for only four to five hours at a time before they have to refuel. "In contrast, the blimp is like having a satellite overhead all the time," he added. "If ground forces are on the move, they can stay in radio range constantly."
Bosch chose Geneva's flight control system for the ACE Airship after conducting a survey of autopilot equipment available on the market, Boschma said.
"There are an awful lot of people competing for this kind of business," he said. "But Geneva had the system for us. flightTEK is truly on the leading edge. Plus, the company is flexible about customizing its software to meet the needs of the blimp."
"The blimp can be built and then operated for years at a fraction of initial cost of building a satellite," Jensen said. "In the future, the unmanned blimp could be used for surveillance activities as well," he added.
Geneva Aerospace designs breakthrough technologies for unmanned aerial vehicles, providing unprecedented autonomy and control. The firm offers advanced flight controls, software, systems integration services and complete unmanned aerial vehicle systems.

I agree completely. GTEL seems ideally positioned to dominate the market on every level IMHO. I believe after a successful launch and equipment test...GTEL will be flooded with contracts for every conceivable application, military, communications, weather, etc...and many that have not been thought of yet as well.
