FIATA At Panama Crossing
      The theme of this year’s FIATA World Congress in Panama is: The Great Connection.
      I admit I have seldom heard a more appropriate, imaginative and yet concise motto for a FIATA event, and I have seen many of these slogans in my many years with FIATA. Connection is indeed the guiding principle in our work. What are forwarders doing in the end? Scout, establish and exploit each and every connecting opportunity that exists in the international trade, be it human, mechanical, digital, geographical or in any other form or manner. We are indeed “connecting” people with their goods, wherever they come from. Perhaps this could be another way of looking at freight forwarding services . . .

Security Requirements & Transatlantic Trade In Balance
     Anyone remembers what airports looked like before 9/11?
     At FT we do: we have seen so many changes in the last twenty years it takes a storyteller to give you an idea, but changes in the last fifty years are such that it is impossible to combine it all without losing balance. And keeping a balance has not been entirely easy for many, including Air Cargo News.

Big Deal In Belgium—EU Cross Border Forum

John's Pizzeria No Slices
      This week I celebrated my 83rd birthday, and I’d like to share a story with you, dear readers. It has little to do with air cargo, but I take this exception as a birthday privilege.
      Sometimes in life, you find that close relationships with which you’ve kept almost constant contact begin to slowly diminish to an occasional card or letter, or worse—evaporate into memory altogether. That happened with my great, good friend, Peter Castellotti, who I sadly just learned died July 30th in Staten Island, New York.
