sat down with Volker Zintel, project
manager for air transport and
security for the House of Logistics
& Mobility (HOLM). Mr. Zintel
has a wealth of experience and
is well connected; he served as
executive VP for FRAPORT in charge
of security, was the erstwhile
police chief at the airport during
the 1981-1984 Startbahn West (takeoff
runway) construction years, which
were plagued by violent demonstrations
by its opponents, and was interwoven
with politics as Mayor of Hochheim,
an idyllic town known for its
wines that lies 20 minutes southwest
of Frankfurt.

& Poor that the country could
lose its investment grade status,
and then the double whammy with
ratings agency Fitch downgrading
its outlook for the Indian economy
from stable to negative. Fitch
also said that the country’s
growth potential "will gradually
deteriorate if further structural
reforms are not hastened." |
