Sanitising has become a mainstream word in the wake of TCOVID-19. The days of the 25 minute turnaround are already history: preparing a passenger aircraft now requires an hour or more. Likewise, cargo aircraft are subject to thorough cleaning measures as they rotate. But it’s not just about sanitising aircraft: there is a broader need for the world’s population to follow medical guidance and adopt safety measures (like masks) without question. That way, confidence will return to this beleaguered sector, as well as others. Yet daily I read of instances where certain sections of society, who clearly know better, ignore such medical advice, and carry on as if there were no viral threat. However, sanitising has extended beyond the present. I read earlier this month of the decision by the authorities at RAF Scampton in the UK to remove the headstone of a dog that died there in 1943, and replace it with another, reworded version. The dog in question was a black Labrador, the flight mascot that belonged to Guy Gibson, 617 Squadron’s Wing Commander. By MISSION contemporary accounts, it was very much one of the group and STATEMENT provided distraction at the airbase during a time when young pilots’ lives were typically measured in terms of sortie numbers. ALI comes from the same team responsible On May 16, 1943, Gibson led the squadron to attack the Mohne and for the well-established Eder dams in Germany in an effort to cripple that country’s industrial titles of Ground Handling strength. That same evening, the Labrador, whose name is now International and Ramp considered racially offensive, was accidentally run over and killed at Equipment News. As such, it builds on over the station. The incident was kept from the flight members for fear of it 20 years of industry being interpreted as an ill omen. experience and, with All of which raises the question: should we be sanitising the past? a comprehensive and skilled team of writers Or, perhaps, should we be learning from it in order to forge the based in both Europe future? and the US, aims to bring the reader up to date with the world of air transportation.

What is now American Airlines (“American”), principle subsidiary of AMR, started out as American Airways in the 1920s – the pioneer age of aviation. AMR is one of four remaining legacy carriers to have survived the Great Depression, 1978 Airline Deregulation, September 11 and the Great Recession that began in late 2007. Slowly fading from our consciousness are the legacy airlines of the past: TWA, Eastern, and Pan American. Only United, Delta, U.S. Airways and AMR still exist. The fact that AMR held out to the end was a point of pride, mostly for 2003-2011 Chairman and CEO Gerard Arpey, because Arpey saw bankruptcy as a sign of failure.
