SPRA Description on Pinksheets:
Spur Ranch will introduce the elite and intriguingly elusive sport of polo to an entirely new audience. Traditionally a sport catering to high society, the 400 year old "sport of kings" will now be presented to a whole new demographic via intelligent development and strategic marketing. The Company plan focuses on developing equestrian and polo themed communities and venues, with its operations firmly grounded in real assets. The Company intends to profit from developing these unique communities, operating equestrian facilities, merchandising and promoting sponsorships of its facilities and events. Headquartered in Austin, Texas with a domestic and international focus on spreading the adoption and spectatorship of polo and other equestrian eventing, Spur Ranch will also produce entertainment media that will bring the equestrian lifestyle into the living rooms of the world.
Spur Ranch has four principal revenue segments. 1) polo and equestrian themed real estate development 2) "reality-based" television programming 3) Equestrian facility development and Operations and 4) Polo and equestrian tournaments and sponsorships.
Spur Ranch will give new life to a sport that has stood the test of time while offering a lifestyle that, before now, was thought to be strictly reserved for society's elite. The dawn of a new era, Spur Ranch will introduce luxury and regalness into any home, regardless of income.
Spanking is way more fun! LMAO.
AAVG looks like she's picking up! Heading toward the runway. All signals are GO!!
More information here would be awesome! Need some DD. I'll keep looking.
They seriously need some PRs. IR company would be helpful!!
B/A needs to tighten up IMO. Gapping isn't appealing to investors or traders.
If ur smokin you might want to share. Wrong sector, sorry! LOL
Strapped in ready for take off!! AAVG!!
Amen brother, get your shares now! This flight will depart shortly.
I put an order in at .40. What's up with that?
Hi OLFBPers! SPRA started trading today. New issue. Not sure of the float. I'm still looking. Polo-themed communities. Looking to replace golf developments - or at least take away market share.
This PPS is a joke. Keep selling peeps. "Ya can't fix stupid" says Ron White. I have to agree. AAVG is worth more than .0085.
SPRA started trading today. 30 x 45.
Polo-themed community developer. Kinda cool.
I thought so too. Can't predict the market tho. Need a freaking crystal ball! Go AAVG!!
That makes sense. MMs do weird things IMO.
SPRA is a cool concept. I'm trying to find a website and get more info. Thinking as it's new its not up yet?
Thanks. This is a new issue right? The drop from 1.30 to .45 can be confusing.

Spur Ranch Polo-Themed Lifestyle Communities Aim to Replace Golf Course Housing Developments
Spur Ranch, Inc. (OTCBB: SPRA) is pleased to announce the formation of Spur Ranch Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Spur Ranch, Inc. Spur Ranch Holdings, Inc. is an equestrian-themed real estate development company that plans to offer the very finest amenities associated with high-end, exclusive, country club living (gated communities, custom homes and clubhouses) with one distinct difference -- there's no golf! "Not that we don't like golf -- we do! -- but we believe the earth has plenty enough golf courses to last for quite some time," said Andrew Stack, Spur Ranch CEO. "Families across the country are looking for a 'destination resort' lifestyle that is not only in their backyard, but actually is their backyard!" Stack also said. A Spur Ranch community is designed to replace the hustle and bustle of today's fast-paced society with a more relaxed, ranch way of life. It's home, home on the range, yet with all the amenities that families have come to expect in today's society.
As part of the recurring "green theme" in its corporate history, Spur Ranch communities will be linked by landscaped riding trails as opposed to concrete golf cart paths. Instead of living in a luxury home overlooking a golf fairway or green, the backdrops of our home sites are natural hunter-jumper eventing courses and polo fields. In addition, Spur Ranch communities will feature world class equestrian centers. "Our incredible barns will feature member cantinas, country club-like tack rooms with lounge areas, and large horse stalls with individual runs. On-site experts will care for Spur Ranch horses that are available for trail riding, as well as member's horses that may board at the facilities on a permanent or temporary basis," Stack remarked. Riding instruction will also be provided in multiple disciplines.
Spur Ranch will also offer development consultation for a fee, partnering with the developer, or co-investing into the development, to design, construct, and manage the entire equestrian operation. This turn-key solution is ideal for the "golf-course developer" looking to differentiate its project from the masses, while also saving considerable capital construction costs, especially in this tumultuous real estate market. "We can develop our polo and equestrian-themed communities at a third to one half the cost of a similar golf course planned community," said Stack. Developers interested in consulting, or potentially partnering with Spur Ranch, are encouraged to contact the company directly.

There's some good news! I don't have level II where I am right now. can you give me the bid/ask?
What is up AAVG board? If I were CEO I would take investor interest as an opportune time to release news! Seriously, if your stock is cranking why not support it?! AAVG management needs to step up to the plate.
Lame-o take down on 100 shares at .0086. I seriously doubt the pps reflects the value of the company.
Hawaii! Now that sounds awesome. I feel the need to evaluate their operations ASAP!
Good AAVG Summary from Pink Sheets.
AvStar Aviation Group, Inc.'s business plan is to acquire and operate businesses in the general aviation industry. We have placed our primary focus on nonscheduled air transportation and on the acquisition of a portfolio of fixed base operations (FBOs) at airports that support light jet traffic along with turbine powered and piston engine aircraft. These facilities are supported by our maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) of aircraft operations, providing products and services for the general aviation sector. Although our wholly owned subsidiary, Twin Air Calypso Limited, is a newly formed company,our management has over 50 years of experience in operating charter aircraft facilities. In addition our wholly owned maintenance repair and overhaul facility in South Florida management has also operated MRO's for over 50 years. We intend to grow our business through the expansion of our existing charter and MRO businesses as well as by the acquisition of fixed base operations, additional charter operations, and other operational aircraft related businesses.
That's awesome! I want one.
How to kill a run in three easy steps:
1. whack the bid
2. whack it some more
3. pound it down
and then die
What the?? I leave for 10 minutes and the whacking starts?? No Bidwhackers allowed! Chiz sell at the ask man.
pound through that resistance!!!!
GO!!!
AAVG
Did I mention that I love green? GO AAVG!!
Back to .0114! Time to take off.
I'm all over that. AAVG has a long way to go.
Departure for AAVG is NOW!!
Welcome aboard!
Someone out there is wanting cheap shares of AAVG. I doubt they can hold the price down for too much longer.
Absolutely. AAVG is building a company with a fleet of airplanes. Not a shack with one prop and a keg of beer.
The business plan and the addition of the advisers shows vision.
Look at the Marketing/Advertising guy, Walter Balan. He's worked at some of the TOP ad agencies. McCann-Erickson and TBWA Chiat/Day and Deutsch. One of his clients was Aeromexico.
I think we have a winner.
I'm talking the stand up comedian the Cable Guy. "I can guess your weight by feeling your boobs. I guessed wrong? Oh well, here's your key chain!" Hahaha
The terrorists are getting more desperate IMO. They are looking for new and creative ways to penetrate the US et al. Heat temp scans could be a good option.
I believe in free speech, but the media gives way too much information out. Why not hand the terrorists a handbook?
But I digress, AAVG has a solid biz plan, they looking at the future. The steps they have just taken: relocating, and the acquisition cost money. I don't expect them to be soaring in revs just yet, but quite soon.
