Reliance

Also known as Vedanta, big smelting , mining company. Worked for them last year on contract. Owner has no idea, so does the Director of Operations, X military guy with a security background, nice enough, but really not an aviation kind of guy. Everybody else was great, worked well. They did not fly much, flew 3 times in 7 weeks, was sitting on the aircraft twice, uniform, catering, to find out the owner was in the terminal buying a commercial ticket. Weird kind of operation. Did get all over India, down to Zambia, and Singapore. Sat in JoBurg for two weeks, because some guy ran into the rear starboard wing with his car after living the flying club bar in Zambia, kind of a story. AIrcraft was still stage 3 on the EFIS, they were kind of cheap. Always seemed to get hotels that were noisy.

Not sure that is correct info. Vedanta is a different company

Vedanta - Home

Below link is for Reliance industries Ltd.

RIL :: Reliance Industries Limited :: Reliance Group

They have an entire fleet of aircraft based out of Mumbai ranging from choppers to a Falcons, to beech and even 319

Big company bigger than life guys has a brother who runs an equally large company with his own private fleet. Both rank in the top 10 money spinners.

No idea how they are to work for except the brothers are like apples and oranges in their outlook!

Hope that helped

I heard late last year that one of the Ambanis cancelled all its oders and had its Gulfstream for sale (orders for a Hawker 4000, BBJ2, and a couple of Globals...).
