Kingfisher boss tracked down by Airline Business

Airline Business editor Mark Pilling presented Kingfisher chairman Dr Vijay Mallya with a framed copy of the July issue of the magazine at last week's Farnborough Airshow. The July issue featured the flamboyant Indian entreprenuer on the cover and contained an in-depth interview inside the pages of the magazine.

Mallya received the framed cover in the ATR chalet at Farnborough where he was announcing a maintenance deal with ATR and Pratt & Whitney Canada for his growing fleet of ATR 72 turboprops.

Kingfisher now has four ATRs in service and all are achieving load factors of over 90%, he said. “They are already making money so we are quite delighted,” he added.
