RE: A
Schiphol Enigma
Hi Geoffrey,
You always write so nicely about everything
and everyone, so I hope you'll write something about
my friend (and old boss) Jos van der Woensel.
As you know, Jos died 5 years ago
in 2011.
Saw the FlyingTypers article
last week with John Vuursteen detailing the Sequoia
Tree at SPL Oost, and John mentioned Jos, his colleague
at Seaboard World Airlines.
Think Jos deserves a nice little story,
don't you?
And who can write that better than
you?
Thanks for all you do,
Mirjam Zijtregtop

Dear Mirjam,
Thanks for the letter.
As usual, our readers are our inspiration.
Below, following all the love we can
muster during this “Valentine's Week,” is
our story written in June 2010 about Jos.
We got to know Jos and his wonderful
wife, Truss, and then almost as quickly, Jos died. We
felt the deep sadness and loss as if someone from our
family had been abruptly taken.
Thanks again for reminding us what
wonderful people we have grown to know in this lifetime
of covering the global air cargo community.
All good wishes,
Geoffrey
