RE:

Was Always Certain
Dear Geoffrey,
Thank you for your very kind words on my
impending retirement. I will miss interacting
with my friends in the airline industry and especially those in the JFK
area. I will not miss the commute every day to JFK from Long Island, especially
in the snow or rain. I'm sure there are many who can identify with that.
I can truly say that what I learned working
with Buz Whalen at JAL was the foundation of whatever success I achieved
in the rest of my air cargo career. I was also fortunate to work with
Otto Leitner at JAL who taught me much about tariffs and agency matters,
which are really obscure matters in today's air cargo industry. Working
with Ed Chism and Ram Menen also helped further my knowledge and experience
and I am very thankful for their support and all my past and present colleagues
who I had the opportunity to work with.
I have been extremely lucky to work 42
years in a very fine industry and work for two excellent companies. Now
it's time to head out to Arizona and start the next phase of my life.
If it's half as interesting and successful as my former life I will be
set.
Best Regards,
Gerry Molinelli
