Finding a Rejuvenated, Vibrant GSE Industry at inter airport Europe

The last time I attended inter airport was 2011 and there was certainly a different vibe this year. The weather was fantastic for October in Munich, but it was really the overwhelmingly positive conversations I had with everyone I talked to that changed the vibe.

I know that we constantly have our ups and downs in aviation, and in ground support, but it was great to see the new products and the innovation exhibited this year.

Part of the conversation I was able to have included the positive changes that are happening with Ground Support Worldwide magazine and our newly combined show with IAEMA, International Airport GSE Expo.  Ground Support Worldwide has increased our global circulation to that of 2x any other publication in the ground support industry this year, as well as our great new look. Add to that the combination of the two North American GSE shows and we are beyond excited moving into next year. 2016 will mark the 24^th year for the publication and the 19^th year for the GSE show.

I would also like to give a BIG thank you to the ITW GSE Group and David Janis, director of sales for ITW GSE Americas, for their hospitality while at inter airport. I truly enjoyed getting to know the group and your different distributors around the world. Also, thanks for letting me saw the wood at your event - it was a great time. And the polka band was fantastic!
