I must admit, I have challenges in deciding which is my favourite article in this edition. During the World Routes Forum held in Guangzhou, China, I was humbled to meet one of the world's most sought after aviation analysts, Alex Macheras. We discussed aviation in general, the Bombardier- Airbus merger and the growth being experienced in Victoria Falls. Also we touched on the CAAZ plans to have more airlines landing in Zimbabwe.

    A FOREIGN COUNTRY: GROWING UP IN RHODESIA Nigel Suckling Draft: © January 2021 1 I – MUNALI – 5 II – LIVINGSTONE – 43 III – PARALLEL LIVES – 126 IV – LUSAKA – 212 V – GOING HOME – 244 APPENDIX – 268 2 FOREWORD As a child you have no measure of how fast the world around you is changing. Because you’re developing so quickly yourself, you assume your environment is static and will carry on pretty much the same as you grow into it. This is true for everyone everywhere, naturally. Most old people can, if suitably primed, talk indefinitely about the changes they’ve seen in their lifetimes, even if they’ve never moved from the place where they were born; but some environments change more drastically than others, even without a war to spur things along. One such was Northern Rhodesia in southern Africa in the 1950s and 60s. As white kids growing up then we had no way of knowing, as our parents almost certainly did, just how fragile and transient our conditions were – how soon and how thoroughly the country would become Zambia, with a completely different social order and set of faces in command. The country of course is still there. In many ways its urban centres now look remarkably unchanged due to relative poverty. The houses we grew up in, many of the streets, landmark buildings and landscapes we were familiar with are still recognizably the same, much more so in fact than in many parts of Europe. What has vanished is the web of British colonial superstructure into which I and my siblings were born as privileged members, brief gentry on the cusp of a perfectly justified and largely peaceful revolution that was soon to brush us aside.

  • Dissertation Study on the Airline Industry
    Is the sky the limit for carbon offsetting? Corporate responsibility, consumer sovereignty and commitment in the airline industry Colin Cafferty MSc Climate Change Management Birkbeck College, University of London September 2011 Plagiarism declaration: “I certify that the work submitted is my own and that I have duly acknowledged any quotation from the published or unpublished work of other persons” Approx word count: 15,843 1 Abstract Air travel has significant impacts on global climate with few options for reducing those impacts at present. Carbon offsetting is a service offered by certain airlines in order to allow passengers to compensate for the carbon emissions generated by their flight thereby cancelling out negative impacts on climate. An increasing number of consumers are now booking their flights directly on-line rather than for example, through a tour operator. This has created an opportunity for passengers to take greater responsibility for their carbon footprint. A review of the literature found a significant research gap in that studies on carbon offsetting focused primarily on either retail carbon offset providers or passenger attitudes towards carbon offsetting. This dissertation views carbon offsetting from the perspective of airlines along the core themes of corporate responsibility, consumer sovereignty and commitment. Carbon offsetting performance is assessed by a comparative analysis of airline websites and compared with a survey of airline attitudes and opinions towards offsetting. This study recommends that airlines benchmark their carbon offsetting schemes using key performance indicators similar to those developed here in order to drive improvement towards best practice. A theoretical framework is also put forward to explain how key themes are interconnected depending on the desired end goal.
