Vol. 29, No. 1 November 2014 T he Top 40 Under 40 program began just three years ago, and there are now 120 people named to this elite list. But did you ever wonder what happens to these win- ners after they're no longer on this list, or they no longer qualify because they are over 40? Yes it is true— even the best and brightest up-and-comers cannot escape middle age. Having achieved outsized success in their younger years, these movers and shakers are still at it. Just because they're no longer on our Top 40 Under 40 list doesn't mean they're not still doing incredible things in the aviation industry. Here's a sampling of what some of our 40 Under 40 leaders are doing now. • Charlie Ferraro. When named as a Top 40 Under 40 winner in 2012, Ferraro was the General Manager for Landmark Aviation at San Diego International Airport. Today he works as Landmark's Regional Vice President where he oversees the company's Western U.S. locations. • Jason Terreri. In 2012, Terreri was the Aviation Contract Administrator for Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. Today Terreri holds a leadership role as Assistant Director of Airports at Horry County Department of Airports (Myrtle Beach). • Katie Jones. Worked as a Public Relations Specialist at San Diego Regional Airport Authority when she won her award. Today she operates as the Marketing and Public Relations Manager of Sixel Consulting Group. • Justin Meyer. The former Director of Air Service Development at Hillsborough County Aviation Authority now serves as Deputy Director of Aviation-Marketing and Air Service Development at Kansas City Aviation Department. • Anthony Banome. In 2013 when he received his Top 40 Under 40 award, he worked in FBO Fuel Sales and Customer Service for Meridian. In June, he was promoted to Director of Fuel Sales for Meridian's FBO and Charter businesses. • Fin Bonset. In 2013, the Senior Manager of The Louis Berger Group's Global Aviation Services nabbed a Top 40 Under 40 award. In July, Atkins hired Bonset as its National Airport Planning Business Manager. As we celebrate this year's honorees, let's also celebrate the fact that aviation's up-and-comers continue to shake up the industry long after the dust settles on their award. Congratulations to our 2014 Top 40 Under 40 winners. We look forward to the years ahead as we watch you con- tinue to grow and shape the future of aviation! Top 40 Under 40: Where are they now? AIRPORTS IMPROVING FITNESS OPTIONS Though I typically consider schlepping bags across the airport to my gate workout enough, when layovers are long, and I'm looking for something to do, a workout might be fun. Travel Weekly reports several U.S. airports now offer beneficial alternatives to browsing junk food outlets or occupying bar stools. Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport opened the PHX Fitness Trail in May, a 2-mile interior fitness trail with seven free bottle-filling water stations. Travelers can embark on the walking circuit (inside TSA checkpoints) that circles Terminal 4. The airport provides a map, points of interest, mileage and photos in a free brochure that passengers can pick up at Terminal 4 information counters. Though Phoenix is the latest to join the fitness craze, other airports also offer these options. Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport unveiled its DFW LiveWell Walking Path inside Terminal D two years ago to give passengers an option to exercise while on the go. The path measures seven-tenths of a mile and is marked with signage as well as by in-floor mosaics that represent progress points along the way from gates D6 to D40. Boston Logan International Airport also features walking paths as well as four health stations in Terminals A, B and C where passengers can check blood pressure, height and weight and test for Body Mass Index. As our 2014 winners look to the future, we also take a look at the past
