New Delhi: A leading industrial group in South India has become the launch customer for Empire Aviation, a private aircraft management service, which began operations in the country this month.
“For the South Indian company, it is a first jet — a large Bombardier aircraft. We inspected the aircraft, got some corrections done and flew it down. We provided the crew, maintenance, catering and fuel over flight —the whole nine yards,” said Vivek Gour, Managing Director, Empire Aviation. He, however, declined to divulge the name of the company. In June this year, Air Works made a Rs 120-crore strategic investment in Dubai-based private aviation company, Empire Aviation Group.
The biggest advantage for the client was that it did not have to set up a huge aviation department to fly just one aircraft.
