SUMMARY:Flying Special Missions: From Ebola to Explosives
DESCRIPTION:When foreign governments descend into chaos and Americans need immediate evacuation; when American personnel are stricken with highly-infectious and deadly diseases and need to be flown home for treatment\, the U.S. State Department turns to one company: Atlanta-founded and Georgia-based Phoenix Air Group\, Inc. \nIn 2017\, Phoenix Air flew Otto Warmbier home from captivity in North Korea. In 2014\, they transported two Ebola-stricken Americans from Liberia to Atlanta for treatment at Emory Hospital. In March 2019\, Phoenix Air extracted 24 American diplomats and up to “20\,000 lbs. of sensitive cargo” from Venezuela despite never having received landing authority in the country. \nThese missions could have been from a James Bond or Jason Bourne script. But they are real with real consequences and real lives at stake. \nOn Tuesday\, April 9th Phoenix Air’s Senior Vice President and General Counsel Randy Davis — who also happens to be the pilot who flew the Ebola patients out of Liberia — will give Council members an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the world of global government special missions and security operations. \nThis program is for Council members only and has limited registrations. Complimentary admission for members. To register or become a member\, e-mail membership manager Alice Dossche at adossche@gsu.edu.
