PART I

Item 1. Business.

Baltia Air Lines, Inc. (the "Company" or "Baltia" or "Baltia Air Lines") is a Part 121 (heavy jet operator) start-up United States airline with Government fitness approval and is currently conducting the FAA Air Carrier Certification. Upon completion of the Air Carrier Certification, Baltia will commence scheduled non-stop service from its Base of Operations at Terminal 4, JFK Int'l Airport in New York to Pulkovo II Int'l Airport of St. Petersburg.Baltia Air Lines, Inc. was organized in the State of New York on August 24, 1989.

On December 19, 2008, the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) issued its Order to Show Cause, finding that Baltia Air Lines is fit, willing and able to engage in international air transport of persons, property and mail. Baltia was awarded the non-stop route from JFK International Airport, New York, New York to Pulkovo International Airport, St. Petersburg Russia. Baltia was also authorized for worldwide charter services. Baltia had filed its application with the DOT in October 2007.

On March 20, 2009 the DOT awarded Baltia Air Lines its initial frequencies for flights from JFK to St. Petersburg.

On August 18, 2009, the Company purchased its first Boeing 747 aircraft from Logistic Air, Inc.

In the first quarter of 2010, we leased engines on a power by the hour basis from Logistic Air, Inc. The engines have been delivered and installed on the aircraft.

In the last quarter of 2010, we purchased our second Boeing 747 aircraft from Kalitta Air.

Baltia currently carries $500,000,000 aircraft liability insurance, and has placed $1.2 billion airline liability insurance through JLT Aerospace meeting the regulatory requirement in preparation for the commencement of revenue service. The Company will carry airline liability insurance as required for a US airline by DOT regulation.

Following the commencement of service on the JFK-St. Petersburg route, Baltia's objective is to develop its route network to Russia, Latvia, Ukraine, and Belarus.

Baltia intends to provide full service, i.e. passenger, cargo and mail. Baltia has two registered trademarks "BALTIA" and "VOYAGER CLASS" and five trademarks are subject to registration.

There is currently no non-stop service from JFK to St. Petersburg. Connecting service is provided mainly by foreign carriers. Finnair, Lufthansa and SAS are the leading competitors in the US-Russia market. KLM, British Airways, Air France, Austrian Airlines, and Swiss International also provide service. However, foreign carriers are required to have intermediate stops at transit airports in their respective countries (Helsinki, Frankfurt, Stockholm, Copenhagen, etc.) because they are "third nation" airlines and as such cannot fly directly between the US and Russia (only a US airline as well as a reciprocating Russian airline is eligible to fly nonstop). Delta and two Russian airlines, Aeroflot and Transaero, currently operate between JFK and Moscow. With the exception of the JFK-Moscow route, there exists no non- stop competitive air transportation service on the routes for which Baltia intends to apply.

Baltia's objective is to establish itself as the leading non-stop carrier in the market niche over the North Atlantic with operations with profitable growth over time. In order to accomplish this objective, we intend to establish and maintain high quality service standards which we believe will be competitive with the European airlines currently providing connecting flights. Baltia does not expect to be in direct competition with deep discount airlines, including several East European airlines and the offspring of the former Soviet airline Aeroflot, which provide connecting flights.

Baltia intends to provide First, Business, and Voyager Class accommodations. Baltia's passenger market strategy is tailored to particular preferences of the various segments of its customer base, with marketing attention particularly focused on American business travelers with interests in Russia who require high quality, non-stop service from the US to Russia.

Baltia's initial marketing strategy is based on existing agencies specializing in the market, selected travel and business publications, supplemented by direct mailings to corporate travel planners, and individual American businesses that are currently involved in Russia. Soon after the inauguration of flight service, Baltia plans to implement its frequent flyer program. As the marketing matures, Baltia plans to advertise to the general public throughout the US, and in Russia. Baltia also plans to sponsor selected industry and trade events in the US and in St. Petersburg.

Baltia intends to provide customer service and reservations centers in New York and in St. Petersburg, to list Baltia's schedules and tariffs in the Official Airline Guide, and provide world-wide access to reservations on Baltia's flights through a major Computer Reservations and Ticketing System ("CRS").

The Company intends to activate its reservations service when the DOT issues its order authorizing Baltia to sell tickets (expected to be approximately 30 to 45 days before the inaugural flight).

Baltia has identified the following market segments in the U.S.-Russia market: (i) Business Travelers, (ii) General Tourism, (iii) Ethnic Travelers, (iv) Special Interest Groups, (v) Professional Exchanges, and (vi) Government and Diplomatic Travel.

Baltia believes that the direct non-stop service to be offered by it will be superior to the stop-over service currently offered by foreign airlines. A comparison between the two services with respect to passenger convenience and cargo transport efficiency is set forth below.

BALTIA - US flag, non-stop service:

With non-stop service, a passenger can fly from JFK to St. Petersburg in about 8 hours in a Boeing B747 wide body airplane. Cargo arrives containerized, palletized, and secure.

Foreign, stop-over journeys:

With stop-over service, it would take a passenger 10 to 18 hours to fly through Helsinki, Copenhagen, Moscow, or Frankfurt on a foreign carrier. In addition, passengers must change to narrow-body aircraft at a layover airport. Cargo is "broken up" and manually loaded onto narrow-body aircraft, or trucked from Helsinki.

Because of the increased reliability and comfort of a non-stop flight, Baltia expects to capture a portion of the existing traffic.

With the Boeing 747 wide-body aircraft Baltia intends to provide cargo service from JFK to St. Petersburg, offering containers, pallets, and block space arrangements. Baltia expects to carry contract cargo for express shippers. Baltia also plans to market its own "Baltia Courier", "Baltia Express", and "Baltia Priority" express service for letters and packages. Baltia also expects revenues from diplomatic mail and cargo, under the Fly America Act.

Baltia has passenger service and ground service arrangements at JFK and at Pulkovo II Airport in St. Petersburg. As a US carrier flying into a foreign country, Baltia will be eligible to the same degree of priority that a foreign carrier receives when arriving in the US.

Baltia intends to start the JFK-St. Petersburg service with one round- trip flight per week, then increase the frequency to three round trips, and then to five round trips.

Baltia plans to build operating modules and apply them in developing new markets. Once established, Baltia plans to duplicate its JFK-St. Petersburg standards on flights on other transatlantic routes.

Additional revenues from charter flying. Concurrently with with its Part 121 air carrier certification ("Part 121") for scheduled service, Baltia is certifying for world wide charter service. Baltia plans to utilize aircraft time available between scheduled service, to earn additional revenues from charters. We may also qualify our aircraft for military contracts.

As of December 31, 2011, Baltia's staff of twenty-five includes professionals who have extensive major US airline experience in aircraft maintenance, airline operations, airline regulatory compliance, reservation, info technology, passenger service, and administration.

Our fiscal year ends on December 31. References to a fiscal year refer to the calendar year in which such fiscal year ends.

OVERVIEW

The Company was organized in the State of New York on August 24, 1989. Its objective is to provide scheduled air transportation from the U.S. to Russia, and former Soviet Union countries.

Baltia is currently conducting the FAA Air Carrier Certification process. Upon completion of the Air Carrier Certification, Baltia intends to commence scheduled non-stop service from its Base of Operations at Terminal 4, JFK Int'l Airport in New York to Pulkovo II Int'l Airport of St. Petersburg.

Baltia intends to provide full service, i.e. passenger, cargo and mail, and will not be dependent upon one or a few major customers. Baltia has two registered trademarks "BALTIA" and "VOYAGER CLASS" and five trademarks subject to registration.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has capital which management believes is sufficient to start revenue operations on the JFK-St. Petersburg route. The Company's operational success may be dependent upon its timely procuring significant external debt and/or equity financing to fund its immediate and nearer-term operations, and subsequently realizing operating cash flows from ticket sales sufficient to sustain its longer-term operations and growth initiatives.

PLAN OF OPERATION

We believe that we have sufficient capital to commence revenue flight operations. During 2011 and into 2012 we continued to finance our operations through the issuance of our common stock. Until revenue operations begin, our monthly expenditures for administrative and regulatory compliance can be controlled at about $100,000-$200,000. Based on current reserves we believe we have sufficient capital to support our development stage operations through the end of 2011.

In 2012 we plan to raise $5 to $8 million in additional financing in order to support revenue flight operations. Based on our prior experience with certification and current preparations management believes that the launch budget, previously reviewed by the DOT, will be adequate to complete certification and to commence flight service. Approximately $1,500,000 is budgeted for certification tasks, and $500,000 for general and administrative expenses. At the time flight service is inaugurated the Company plans to have approximately 20 management and 45 staff personnel.

There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on terms favorable to us or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to fund operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Our estimates, judgments and assumptions are continually re-evaluated based upon available information and experience. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates. Areas in which significant judgment and estimates are used include, but are not limited to, valuation of long-lived assets and deferred income taxes.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets: We review the recoverability of our long- lived assets, including buildings, equipment and intangible assets, when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on our ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future pre-tax cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between estimated fair value and carrying value. Our primary measure of fair value is based on discounted cash flows. The measurement of impairment requires management to make estimates of these cash flows related to long-lived assets, as well as other fair value determinations.

We amortize the costs of other intangibles (excluding goodwill) over their estimated useful lives unless such lives are deemed indefinite. Amortizable intangible assets are tested for impairment based on undiscounted cash flows and, if impaired, written down to fair value based on either discounted cash flows or appraised values. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested for impairment, at least annually, and written down to fair value as required.

The Company complies with FASB ASC Topic 718 "Compensation - Stock Compensation," which establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. FASB ASC Topic 718 focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. FASB ASC Topic 718 requires an entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). No compensation costs are recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service. The grant-date fair value of employee share options and similar instruments will be estimated using option-pricing models adjusted for the unique characteristics of those instruments (unless observable market prices for the same or similar instruments are available). If an equity award is modified after the grant date, incremental compensation cost will be recognized in an amount equal to the excess of the fair value of the modified award over the fair value of the original award immediately before the modification.

Our primary type of share-based compensation consists of stock-based awards. We use the fair value method in accordance with ASC 718. We also may use stock options. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model in valuing options. The inputs for the valuation analysis of the options include the market value of the Company's common stock, the estimated volatility of the Company's common stock, the exercise price of the warrants and the risk free interest rate.

Expected
Volatility
Expected
Life in Years
2010 4.4% 0.00% 200% 1
2011 3.0% 0.00% 200% 5

Income taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740 "Income Taxes," which requires accounting for deferred income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax asset and liabilities are computed for difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on the enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce the deferred income tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The determination of the Company's provision for income taxes requires significant judgment, the use of estimates, and the interpretation and application of complex tax laws. Significant judgment is required in assessing the timing and amounts of deductible and taxable items and the probability of sustaining uncertain tax positions. The benefits of uncertain tax positions are recorded in the Company's financial statements only after determining a more-likely-than-not probability that the uncertain tax positions will withstand challenge, if any, from tax authorities. When facts and circumstances change, the Company reassesses these probabilities and records any changes in the financial statements as appropriate.

In accordance with GAAP, the Company is required to determine whether a tax position of the Company is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. De-recognition of a tax benefit previously recognized could result in the Company recording a tax liability that would reduce stockholders equity. This policy also provides guidance on thresholds, measurement, de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition that is intended to provide better financial statement comparability among different entities. Management's conclusions regarding this policy may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. Generally, the tax filings are no longer subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities for years before 2007. Any potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with U.S. federal, state and local tax laws. The Company's management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We had no revenues during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, because (1) we did not fly aircraft in passenger, charter, or freight service, and (2) we could not sell tickets for those services.

Our general and administrative expenses increased by $5,762,390 to $24,323,228 during fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to an increase of $7,157,352 during the fiscal year ended December 31,2010. This decrease is primarily attributable to the costs incurred in connection with air carrier certification.

Primarily as a result of air carrier certification, we incurred a net loss of $25,075,497 during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to a net loss of $19,394,527 during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

Our future ability to achieve profitability in any given future fiscal period remains highly contingent upon us beginning flight operations. Our ability to realize revenue from flight operations in any given future fiscal period remains highly contingent upon us obtaining significant equity infusions and/or long-term debt financing sufficient to fund initial operations. Even if we were to be successful in procuring such funding, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in commencing revenue operations or, if commenced, that such operations would be profitable.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Since our inception, we have incurred substantial operating and net losses, as well as negative operating cash flows. As of December 31, 2011, we had cash of $57,390, an increase of $4,550 from the cash balance of $52,840 reported at December 31,2010. Our stockholders' equity was $2,457,590 at December 31, 2011, an increase of $170,637 from the balance of $2,286,953 reported at December 31, 2010.

Our operating activities utilized $7,223,181 in cash during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $2,814,817 from the $4,408,364 in cash utilized during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

Our financing activities provided $7,807,242 and $5,527,454 in cash during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

We had no significant planned capital expenditures, budgeted or otherwise, as of December 31, 2011, except for an investment of approximately $400,000 in our aircraft enhancements and approximately $100,000 in office equipment this year.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements: We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements which have, or are reasonably likely to have, an effect on our financial condition, financial statements, revenues or expenses.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Item 9A(T). Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

Our management evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making this assessment, our management used the COSO framework, an integrated framework for the evaluation of internal controls issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There was no change in our internal controls or in other factors that could affect these controls during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. While existing controls may be adequate at present, upon the commencement of flight revenue service we intend to implement controls appropriate for airline operations.

Item 9B. Other Information.

Soon was moved to Director of Crew Scheduling and Dispatch and finished as interface with Military Airlift Command for Ceabord. From 1980 to 1981 he was Director of Stations with responsibility for hiring and outfitting all stations for the start-up New York Air. In 1981, Mr. Thal started Compuflight, Inc., and served as President and Chairman until he retired in 2001. Compuflight provided both flight planning and engineering services to the airline industry.

All this has been maintained financially over the past five years with zero operating revenue.

No organization to which Mr. Clare has been associated is a parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of Baltia Air Lines, Inc.

C. Nominations for Director:

Baltia Air Lines, Inc., has had only one recent nomination for director, Vick Luis Bolanos, who was nominated and chosen as a director in 2009 because Baltia sought someone with the skills stated above. The Baltia has four Board members. Each has direct access to others and "hands on" opportunities to advance the Company. Mr. Bolanos was unanimously selected to replace the retiring Board member because he brought insight, experience, and skills that had enabled him to bring Eastern Construction & Electric, Inc. from inception to a large company operating in several geographic locations. Similar to the operations which Mr. Bolanos has been a part of, Baltia is a start-up with plans to become a large company with stations in Russia and in several former Soviet controlled countries.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.

Mr. Vick Luis Bolanos was elected to the Baltia Board of Directors while he was, and remains, President and Chairman of Eastern Construction & Electric, Inc. The transaction between Baltia and Eastern was made in the ordinary course of business on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable loans with persons not related to the lender; and did not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features. This transaction is discussed further in Note 6 to the Financial Statements infra.

Item 14. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

In 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008 the Company paid its independent accountant $7,000 for services in providing an audit of the previous year. All other Company accounting and tax preparations have been done in house.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Years Ended December 31, 2011 and 2010

Board of Directors and Shareholders
Baltia Air Lines, Inc.
New York, NY

I have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Baltia Air Lines, Inc. ("the Company") as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit.

I conducted my audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements. I was not engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. My audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, I express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion. In my opinion, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Baltia Air Lines, Inc. as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 8 of the financial statements, the Company has incurred a deficit during its development stage of approximately $75 million and consumed approximately $21 million of cash due to its operating activities. The Company may not have adequate readily available resources to fund operations through December 31, 2012. This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 8. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

BALTIA AIR LINES, INC.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
DECEMBER 31, 2011

 

Basis of Presentation:  The financial statements have been presented in a “development stage” format. Since inception, our primary activities have been raising of capital, obtaining financing and of obtaining route authority and approval from the DOT and the FAA. We have not commenced our principal revenue producing activities.

Use of Estimates:  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from the estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:  For financial statement presentation purposes, we consider those short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash or cash equivalents.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:  FASB ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. FASB ASC 825 defines fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the carrying value of certain financial instruments (cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses.) approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments or interest rates, which are comparable with current rates.

Fair Value Measurements: FASB ASC 820 defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to the inputs to the valuation techniques. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or amount paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market. Valuation techniques that are consistent with the market, income or cost approach, as specified by FASB ASC 820, are used to measure fair value.

Fair Value Hierarchy

FASB ASC 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based upon whether the inputs to those valuation techniques reflect assumptions other market participants would use based upon market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs), or reflect the Company’s own assumptions of market participant valuation (unobservable inputs). In accordance with FASB ASC 820, these two types of inputs have created the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets that are unadjusted and accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 – Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 FASB ASC 820 requires the use of observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effort.

Measurement of Fair Value

The Company measures fair value as an exit price using the procedures described below for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value. When available, the Company uses unadjusted quoted market prices to measure fair value and classifies such items within Level 1. If quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that use, where possible, current market-based or independently-sourced market parameters such as interest rates and currency rates. Items valued using internally generated models are classified according to the lowest level input or value driver that is significant to the valuation. Thus, an item may be classified in Level 3 even though there may be inputs that are readily observable. If quoted market prices are not available, the valuation model used generally depends on the specific asset or liability being valued. The determination of fair value considers various factors including interest rate yield curves and time value underlying the financial instruments.

Property and Equipment: >Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 5-15 years. Expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized. Expenditures for minor items, repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Gain or loss upon sale or retirement due to obsolescence is reflected in the operating results in the period the event takes place.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets: We review the recoverability of our long-lived assets, including buildings, equipment and intangible assets, when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on our ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future pre-tax cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between estimated fair value and carrying value. Our primary measure of fair value is based on discounted cash flows. The measurement of impairment requires management to make estimates of these cash flows related to long-lived assets, as well as other fair value determinations.

We amortize the costs of other intangibles (excluding goodwill) over their estimated useful lives unless such lives are deemed indefinite. Amortizable intangible assets are tested for impairment based on undiscounted cash flows and, if impaired, written down to fair value based on either discounted cash flows or appraised values. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested for impairment, at least annually, and written down to fair value as required.

Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income is defined as changes in the equity of an enterprise except those resulting from shareholder transactions. The amounts shown on our statement of stockholders’ equity relate to the cumulative effect of minimum pension liabilities, translation adjustments, and unrealized gain or loss on securities.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans: Stock-based awards are accounted for using the fair value method in accordance with ASC 718, Share-Based Payments, and EITF Issue No. 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services. Our primary type of share-based compensation consists of stock options. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model in valuing options. The inputs for the valuation analysis of the options include the market value of the Company’s common stock, the estimated volatility of the Company’s common stock, the exercise price of the warrants and the risk free interest rate.

Accounting For Obligations And Instruments Potentially To Be Settled In The Company’s Own Stock.

We account for obligations and instruments potentially to be settled in the Company’s stock in accordance with EITF Issue No. 00-19, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed To, and Potentially Settled In a Company’s Own Stock. This issue addresses the initial balance sheet classification and measurement of contracts that are indexed to, and potentially settled in, the Company’s own stock.>

Under EITF Issue No. 00-19 contracts are initially classified as equity or as either assets or liabilities, in the following situations:

Equity

· Contracts that require physical settlement or net-share settlement; and

· Contracts that give the company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement), assuming that all the criteria for equity classification have been met.

Assets or Liabilities

· Contracts that require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net-cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the company); and

· Contracts that give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement).

All contracts are initially measured at fair value and subsequently accounted for based on the current classification. Contracts initially classified as equity do not recognize subsequent changes in fair value as long as the contracts continue to be classified as equity. For contracts classified as assets or liabilities, the Company reports changes in fair value in earnings and discloses these changes in the financial statements as long as the contracts remain classified as assets or liabilities. If contracts classified as assets or liabilities are ultimately settled in shares, any previously reported gains or losses on those contracts continue to be included in earnings. The classification of a contract is reassessed at each balance sheet date.

In accordance with EITF Issue No. 00-19, a transaction which includes a potential for net-cash settlement, including liquidated damages, requires that derivative financial instruments, including warrants and additional investment rights, initially be recorded at fair value as an asset or liability and subsequent changes in fair value be reflected in the statement of operations. The recorded value of the liability for such derivatives can fluctuate significantly based on fluctuations in the market value of the underlying common stock of the issuer of the derivative instruments, as well as in the volatility of the stock price during the term used for observation and the remaining term.

Earnings per Common Share: Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period. Diluted earnings per share assume that any dilutive convertible securities outstanding were converted, with related preferred stock dividend requirements and outstanding common shares adjusted accordingly. It also assumes that outstanding common shares were increased by shares issuable upon exercise of those stock options for which market price exceeds the exercise price, less shares which could have been purchased by us with the related proceeds. In periods of losses, diluted loss per share is computed on the same basis as basic loss per share as the inclusion of any other potential shares outstanding would be anti-dilutive.

Income Taxes: We have adopted ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Pursuant to ASC 740, we are required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.

We must make certain estimates and judgments in determining income tax expense for financial statement purposes. These estimates and judgments occur in the calculation of certain tax assets and liabilities, which arise from differences in the timing of recognition of revenue and expense for tax and financial statement purposes.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between financial reporting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using the tax rates and laws in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. ASC 740 provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not to occur. Realization of our net deferred tax assets is dependent upon our generating sufficient taxable income in future years in appropriate tax jurisdictions to realize benefit from the reversal of temporary differences and from net operating loss, or NOL, carryforwards. We have determined it more likely than not that these timing differences will not materialize and have provided a valuation allowance against substantially all of our net deferred tax asset. Management will continue to evaluate the realizability of the deferred tax asset and its related valuation allowance. If our assessment of the deferred tax assets or the corresponding valuation allowance were to change, we would record the related adjustment to income during the period in which we make the determination. Our tax rate may also vary based on our results and the mix of income or loss in domestic and foreign tax jurisdictions in which we operate.

In addition, the calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. We recognize liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues in the U.S. and other tax jurisdictions based on our estimate of whether, and to the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. If we ultimately determine that payment of these amounts is unnecessary, we will reverse the liability and recognize a tax benefit during the period in which we determine that the liability is no longer necessary. We will record an additional charge in our provision for taxes in the period in which we determine that the recorded tax liability is less than we expect the ultimate assessment to be.

ASC 740 which requires recognition of estimated income taxes payable or refundable on income tax returns for the current year and for the estimated future tax effect attributable to temporary differences and carry-forwards. Measurement of deferred income tax is based on enacted tax laws including tax rates, with the measurement of deferred income tax assets being reduced by available tax benefits not expected to be realized

Uncertain Tax Positions

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes” (“FIN No. 48”) which was effective for the Company on January 1, 2007. FIN No. 48 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under FIN No. 48, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. FIN No. 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure requirements.

Our federal and state income tax returns are open for fiscal years ending on or after December 31, 2006. We are not under examination by any jurisdiction for any tax year. At December 31, 2011 we had no material unrecognized tax benefits and no adjustments to liabilities or operations were required under FIN 48.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

Recently Adopted Standards

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASC update No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. The amendments in this update result in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in US generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). Consequently, the amendments converge the fair value measurement guidance in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. Some of the amendments clarify the application of existing fair value measurement requirements, while other amendments change a particular principle in ASC 820. The amendments in this update that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements include the following: 1) measuring the fair value of financial instruments that are managed within a portfolio, 2) application of premiums and discounts in a fair value measurement, and 3) additional disclosures about fair value measurements. The amendments in this update are to be applied prospectively and are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. We do not believe that adoption of this update will have a material impact on our financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASC update No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Presentation of Comprehensive Income. The FASB decided to eliminate the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity, among other amendments in this update. The amendments require that all non-owner changes in stockholder’s equity be presented in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, the Company is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. The statement of other comprehensive income should immediately follow the statement of net income and include the components of other comprehensive income and total for other comprehensive income, along with a total for comprehensive income.

The entity is also required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of comprehensive income are presented. The amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively, and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011.

4. Income Taxes

The Company has approximately $ 18.6 million in available net operating loss carryovers available to reduce future income taxes. These carryovers expire at various dates through the year 2032. The Company has adopted ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes which provides for the recognition of a deferred tax asset based upon the value the loss carry-forwards will have to reduce future income taxes and management's estimate of the probability of the realization of these tax benefits. We have determined it more likely than not that these timing differences will not materialize and have provided a valuation allowance against our entire net deferred tax asset of approximately $6.1 million.

Utilization of federal and state NOL and tax credit carry-forwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of NOL and tax credit carry-forwards before full utilization.

5. Commitments and Contingencies

Facilities: The Company leases office space for its administrative offices, under three month to month agreements, at a combined monthly rental of approximately $27,000. In 2011 and 2010 expense was $336,979 and $387,898 respectively.

6. Long-Term Debt-Related Party:

On December 1, 2010, the Company entered into a loan arrangement with a company owned or controlled by one of our directors for a total amount of $1,150,000. The Company issued a note bearing interest at 9% per annum payable quarterly and a maturity date of March 31, 2013. The Company will be obligated to repay the note prior to the maturity date upon raising $4 million or from the proceeds of operating revenue. As a loan inducement the Company issued 6.8 million shares of common stock and 3.4 million warrants. A placement fee of $50,000 was paid from the proceeds of this loan. The note is secured by both aircraft up to a limit of $2.9 million.

The Company recorded the relative fair value of the shares and warrants of $294,297 as additional paid-in capital and established a discount debt. The discount is being amortized over the life of the note (27 months) at an effective rate of 14.98%. The note is carried net of the discount. Future accretion of the carrying value of the note is expected as follows:

8. Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Currently, the Company has a minimum cash balance available for the payment of ongoing operating expenses, and its operations has not of yet produced any revenue, which would allow it to cover its operational costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. Since inception, the Company has incurred a deficit during its development stage of approximately $75.0 million and consumed approximately $21.0 million. The continued operations of the Company is dependent upon implementing airline service that would generate profits and raising sufficient capital through placement of its common stock or issuance of debt securities, which would enable the Company to carry out its business plan.

In the event we do not generate sufficient funds from revenues or financing through the issuance of our common stock or from debt financing, we may be unable to fully implement our business plan and pay our obligations as they become due, any of which circumstances would have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be required should the Company be unable to recover the value of its assets or satisfy its liabilities.

During 2011 and into 2012, we continue to finance our operations through the issuance of our common stock and the continued exercise of warrants. Until revenue operations begin, our monthly expenditures for administrative and regulatory compliance can be controlled at about $180,000-$200,000.

In 2011, we raised $7.8 million a private placement in order to start revenue flight operations. Revenue services did not start in 2011 as planned, and, as of April 15, 2012, we still have not implemented revenue producing services. At the time flight service is inaugurated, the company plans to have approximately 15 management and 45 staff personnel.

Management has considered the overall pipeline effect that enhances the initial cash position of a startup carrier. It is the industry practice for passengers to purchase tickets in advance of their flights while service vendors bill the carrier later.

In order that a new airline would not fly empty on day one, approximately 30 days prior to the expected inaugural date the DOT authorizes sales of tickets and cargo. Such funds from advance sales, estimated at approximately $3 million for the company, accumulate in an escrow account, and are released upon the issuance of the air carrier certificate.

There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on terms favorable to us or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to fund expansion.
