Mumbai: Aircraft maintenance and repair firm Air Works India Engineering Pvt Ltd is in the process of setting up a hangar for wide-bodied aircraft in Hosur, Bangalore, Ravi Menon, director and group head (business development), said on Wednesday. He said that the construction of the hangar is in the initial stages and it will be operational by the end of 2010-11.
"In the first phase, we have invested close to $20 million for the building this hangar. By the end of 2011, our total investment will reach $45 million," said Menon.
