Sir Reginald Myles Ansett KBE (13 February 1909 – 23 December 1981) was an Australian businessman and aviator.[1] He was best known for founding Ansett Transport Industries,[2] which owned one of Australia's two leading domestic airlines between 1957 and 2001. He also established a number of other business enterprises including Ansett Pioneer coachlines, Ansett Freight Express, Ansair coachbuilders, Gateway Hotels, Diners Club Australia, Biro Bic Australia[1] and the ATV-0 television station in Melbourne and TVQ-0 in Brisbane which later became part of Network Ten.[3] ATI also bought out Avis Rent a Car and had a 49% interest in Associated Securities Limited (ASL).[4] In late 1979, mainly due to the collapse of ASL,[5] Ansett lost control of the company to Peter Abeles of TNT and Rupert Murdoch of News Corporation who became joint managing directors.
