Air Ananya

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Air Ananya was an airline based in Nepal, operating helicopter services.

[edit] History

After a helicopter was burnt at Jiri by Maoists and there were a couple of accidents and helicopters hit by bullets, Banwari Lal Mittal, now Chairman and CEO of Shree Airlines, consulted an astrologer who suggested changing the name of the airline. Thus Air Ananya became Shree Airlines. (Shree means auspicious beginning). [1]

[edit] Fleet

Air Ananya operated MI-17 helicopters on services which included rescue, sling operations and transporting heavy cargo and foodgrains anywhere within Nepal.[2]
