AvStar Aviation Group, Inc. Announces Revenue Increases; Addition to Air Fleet; and Update of DOT Commuter Authority Status
HOUSTON, May 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- AvStar Aviation Group, Inc. (AvStar) (OTCQB: AAVG) today announced that it's wholly owned subsidiary, Twin Air Calypso Limited, Inc., continues to realize increases in revenues for 2011. Building upon revenue increases of more than 25% for the first quarter of 2011, April revenues increased by more than 35% compared to the same period in 2010. The additional revenue generated by the company results from increased capacity and a more favorable economic environment. The company has returned an aircraft to service via its refurbishment program, increasing the fleet to three aircraft. The refurbishment program continues and another aircraft is expected to be in service by early June, further increasing capacity and revenue. Marketing strategies are currently underway to obtain additional business for the summer and fall periods and will allow the company to increase revenues over the corresponding 2010 periods.
The Twin Air Calypso Limited management team is completing the DOT Commuter Authority package and expects to file it with the DOT after the upcoming 10Q is published. The approval process is expected to be completed prior to the 2011-2012 winter season and will further increase capacity and marketing opportunities.
"The additional authority afforded by the commuter status will give us the ability to further expand our marketing strategies, increase route frequency and pursue new destinations. With the cost reductions from our new facility and the implementation of internal controls, our air carrier operations for the first quarter of 2011 have shown a profit. Only minor increases in operating expenses will be needed as future revenues climb, resulting in significantly higher profitability. With additional capacity, authority, stable costs, and aggressive marketing our prospects for increased profits improve by a wide margin", said Clayton Gamber, CEO of AvStar Aviation Group, Inc.
