Hotdoggers Surf Club PRIVATE AIR TRAVEL FOLLOW US ONLINE TWITTER.COM/SPORTINPROFILE Private Air Travel has become increasingly popular and can be particularly useful for Sports club’s that have a large number of fixtures outside of their home country. The Baltic Air Charter Association (BACA) oversees the field with the objectives to ‘promote the highest standards of professionalism and ethics within the Aviation Industry. Their Chairman, Tony Coe, took the time to tell us more about the benefits involved for sports clubs using private air travel. He started by giving us a little more information about BACA and the role he plays there, saying, “My company has been a member of BACA since 1997. The Association has always stood as a benchmark for quality, honesty and integrity. BACA’s motto “Our word our Bond” says it all and has done since 1947. To be able to display the BACA logo is a sign to the industry and clients that our business is conducted to the highest ethical, professional, and honest standards. The most rewarding aspects of my role are helping companies and individuals through difficulties, sometimes with legal help but certainly sharing our knowledge on how to cope in an extremely competitive world. Training and particularly training younger entrants to the industry is probably the most rewarding thing for me. 4 Issue 05 Seeing V
