Anniversary
Three Decades of Ground Support
As our publication celebrates its 30th year of covering the industry,
we invite you to share memories and help highlight the 'unsung heroes' of aviation.
BY JOSH SMITH
W
e're in the mood to celebrate
at Ground Support
Worldwide as 2022 seems
ripe with optimism and excitement
that the industry can continue its
return to the levels of success we saw
prior to 2020. What's more, our publication
is celebrating a milestone as
we begin our 30th year covering the
ground support industry.
Since its inception, the publication
has always had the same mission - to
bring compelling, informative coverage
of the ground support equipment (GSE)
and ground handling industries and help
stakeholders find suppliers to meet their
ground support needs.
George and Jennifer Prill sought to
achieve this goal when they launched
GSE Today 30 years ago.
" We have always approached ground
support people as the unsung heroes of
the industry, " Jennifer Prill, publisher of
GSE Today, said in 2001 when the magazine
was acquired by Cygnus Business
Media (now Endeavor Business Media).
While ground support personnel
may be overlooked by some, the magazine's
staff has always strived to
highlight the important work carried
out on the ramp as the publication
rebranded as Ground Support Magazine
in 2003 and Ground Support Worldwide
in 2006 to better illustrate the scope of
our coverage.
We look forward to commemorating
the 30th anniversary of the magazine
throughout the year in this column,
and we hope you will consider celebrating
with us, too.
Please reach out to us to share memories,
highlight the people that have made
great contributions and spotlight the
innovations in GSE that put the industry
on course for where we are today.
We know that among the GSE fanatics
that make up the industry, there are a
few collectors out there. We'd love to
see the oldest issue of the magazine you
have in your collection.
If you happen to have a copy of the
very first issue, send us a photo!
We want to celebrate the companies
and the people that have spearheaded
our industry as well. Show us issues
of the magazine that highlighted your
major achievements and moments
that were important to your companies'
successes.
We will also use this milestone year
as an opportunity to not only look back
fondly at our industry but focus on
what the next 30 years have in store for
ground support.
We're looking forward to a fantastic
year and honoring the ground support
industry with all of you.
