Business Summary
Air Works India was founded in 1951 by Mr. B. G. Menon and Mr. P. S. Menon, both considered to be not only seasoned technocrats in aviation but also recognised as two of the pioneers who contributed to the development of Indian Civil Aviation. Starting with the maintenance and overhaul work on a few DC-3s in the early 1950s, their firm, Air Works India, has gone on to work on an impressive number and variety of aircraft. Indeed in a field totally dominated by public sector undertakings such as the two major nationalised airlines & Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd., Air Works India, a totally private company with a fiercely independent outlook, has managed to successfully carve out a niche for itself in India. Air Works India has the privilege of maintaining and operating aircraft of not only government agencies like National Airports Authority, National Remote Sensing Agency, Geological Survey of India and several State Governments but also those of leading private sector groups like ESSAR, Reliance, Hindustan Aluminium etc.
