Re: Application for Appointment to Greater London Int. Airport Authority

Dear Board of Control,

Appointment to the GLIAA, outlined in your advertisement of January 10, 2004, matches my career interests and is strongly compatible with my skills and experience.

During the period 1998 to 2003, I attended the London Chamber Transportation Committee Meetings as an LEDC representative to keep informed on the progress of the airport. The presence of an International Airport in London was very helphl in our strategy to have companies locate in London.

Importance of additional revenue streams at the airport are crucial due to the possible loss of an airline. The Co-Venture between the City and the airport offers the opportunity to be a revenue source and my LEDC experience would help in this initiative. A Trade-Free Zone might also be available.

I look forward to discussing this appointment opportunity with the Board.

Very truly yours,
