It played an important role in defence support services to the RAF, Fleet Air Arm and overseas air forces, as well as in the development of civil aviation. Created at Heston in 1928, it maintained Whitley bombers and de Havilland Tiger Moths in the 1930s and established the precursors of the post-WW2 airlines of Egypt, India and Rhodesia. Post-war it was the first airline to be awarded a troop flying contract and expanded into civil aviation, developing flights to Africa and the US. The main independent airline in the 1950s, it became part of British United Airways in 1960, also establishing many airlines around the world, including Deutsche Flugdienst (Condor), Misr-Airwork (Egyptair), and the Sudanese National Airline.

Book excerpt: Indian Airlines Corporation is the second largest domestic airline in terms of passenges carried outside the United States. Though some studies on air transportationin India have been undertaken, they are neither comprehensive nor systematic. Besides, several problems faced by it are coming to surface in recent times. Frequent hikes in passenger fares without correspondign improvement of efficiency, unreliability of services owing mainly to delays and cancellations of flights, accidents and inadequate fleet due to resource constraints are some of the important problems which call for a searching enquiry into the performance of Indian Airlines. The present study is preceded by a brief review of the existing research and literature on different aspects of air transportationin India and the world witha focus on matters like evolution, history, costs and revenues, pattern of traffic, demand and supply, safety and allied matters. This is followed by the discussion tracing the history and trends of civil aviation in India and also gives an account of various institutions both Indian and non-Indian working towards its healthy growth.

Download or read book Tata written by Mircea Raianu and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2021-07-06 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An eye-opening portrait of global capitalism spanning 150 years, told through the history of the Tata corporation. Nearly a century old, the grand façade of Bombay House is hard to miss in the historic business district of Mumbai. This is the iconic global headquarters of the Tata Group, a multinational corporation that produces everything from salt to software. After getting their start in the cotton and opium trades, the Tatas, a Parsi family from Navsari, Gujarat, ascended to commanding heights in the Indian economy by the time of independence in 1947. Over the course of its 150-year history Tata spun textiles, forged steel, generated hydroelectric power, and took to the skies. It also faced challenges from restive workers fighting for their rights and political leaders who sought to curb its power. In this sweeping history, Mircea Raianu tracks the fortunes of a family-run business that was born during the high noon of the British Empire and went on to capture the world’s attention with the headline-making acquisition of luxury car manufacturer Jaguar Land Rover. The growth of Tata was a complex process shaped by world historical forces: the eclipse of imperial free trade, the intertwined rise of nationalism and the developmental state, and finally the return of globalization and market liberalization. Today Tata is the leading light of one of the world’s major economies, selling steel, chemicals, food, financial services, and nearly everything else, while operating philanthropic institutions that channel expert knowledge in fields such as engineering and medicine. Based on painstaking research in the company’s archive, Tata elucidates how a titan of industry was created and what lessons its story may hold for the future of global capitalism.
