AN/AAA/AUSTAIR.

Ansett-ANA was created in 1957 as the result of purchase of ANA-Australian National Airways by Ansett Airways Pty Ltd founded in 1935 by Reg Ansett. To ensure no other competitors could rise up to challenge his airline, Reg Ansett took control of Adelaide based Guinea Airways renamed Airlines of South Australia and Sydney based Butler Air Transport renamed Airlines of New South Wales. In the same way, Papua New Guinean company Mandated Airlines was purchased in 1961 and called Ansett-MAL.
Another unusual feature of Ansett's operations was the flying boat service from Rose Bay in Sydney to Lord Howe Island. This was operated by Ansett Flying Boat Services using Short Sandringham four-engined aircraft. This service ceased in 1974.
In 1968, Ansett-ANA became Ansett Airlines of Australia, with a new Delta logo livery.
