The upper half of town, known as Al-Allali, boasts a magnificent sculpture adorned with calligraphy nestled in the area’s central Shakr roundabout. Park the car and proceed on foot down the steep, narrow road that leads to city’s downtown area known as Al-Balad. Stop and admire the roundabout featuring a statue of St George slaying a dragon. This old locale also displays delightful architecture in the form of century-old, stone cottages alongside the deep Wadi Rahwa. What to do To shop in Fuheis is to travel through time, the area is loaded with shops offering local produce, crafts, and traditional trinkets. As a destination awash with history and heritage, stopping by one of the countless Catholic and Orthodox churches along the way is a must. Be sure to visit The Latin Parish of Fuheis, which was established in 1874 during the Ottoman era. Where to eat The city is deemed as a culinary hub, dotted with a wonderful mix of traditional restaurants and contemporary eateries. For Middle Eastern cuisine visit Al-Housh, Logmeh Al Kanoun, or Al-Zuwwadeh. The ambiance is cozy, the is food simply delectable, and the bread is freshly baked.

    The History of Air Transport KOSTAS IATROU Dedicated to my wife Evgenia and my sons George and Yianni Copyright © 2020: Kostas Iatrou First Edition: July 2020 Published by: Hermes – Air Transport Organisation Graphic Design – Layout: Sophia Darviris Material (either in whole or in part) from this publication may not be published, photocopied, rewritten, transferred through any electronical or other means, without prior permission by the publisher. Preface ommercial aviation recently celebrated its first centennial. Over the more than 100 years since the first Ctake off, aviation has witnessed challenges and changes that have made it a critical component of mod- ern societies. Most importantly, air transport brings humans closer together, promoting peace and harmo- ny through connectivity and social exchange. A key role for Hermes Air Transport Organisation is to contribute to the development, progress and promo- tion of air transport at the global level. This would not be possible without knowing the history and evolu- tion of the industry. Once a luxury service, affordable to only a few, aviation has evolved to become accessible to billions of peo- ple. But how did this evolution occur? This book provides an updated timeline of the key moments of air transport. It is based on the first aviation history book Hermes published in 2014 in partnership with ICAO, ACI, CANSO & IATA. I would like to express my appreciation to Professor Martin Dresner, Chair of the Hermes Report Committee, for his important role in editing the contents of the book. I would also like to thank Hermes members and partners who have helped to make Hermes a key organisa- tion in the air transport field.
