“Alexey is an inspiring individual who has made many great contributions to the air cargo industry, and we are pleased to be able to celebrate his work with this very deserving recognition,” said Doug Brittin, secretary general of TIACA.

 

Isaykin founded Volga-Dnepr Airlines in 1989 with other entrepreneurs and enthusiasts, forming the first private cargo airline in Russia. According to TIACA, Isaykin is actively involved in public work to strengthen the Russian civil aviation industry.

 

“This is a great honour and I am very pleased to be recognized alongside so many outstanding individuals who have played a key role in shaping the aviation industry, like Oleg Antonov, the truly visionary of the industry, whose aircraft is the essential part of the global market and helps customers from all over the world to deliver any kind of cargo in due time and place,” said Isaykin. “Our industry plays a crucial role in the world today and being a part of the air cargo community has been a privilege.”

 

Isaykin will be inducted during TIACA’s Executive Summit, which is being held on May 24-26, 2016 in Florida, according to the association.
