The L UNGE Unrivaled joy in running, biking, driving & traveling with family Carsten Hernig first had a brush with the air cargo industry in his 10th grade as an intern. He was so fascinated with air freight that he even made a thesis about it and eventually built his career in the industry. worth to conserve them for the future. From my time in Today, Hernig is the Managing Director at Jettainer GmbH, India, I still own a vintage Royal Enfield bike, a bullet built in a subsidiary of Lufthansa Cargo AG. Headquartered in '64. Again, a vehicle which has impacted the development Germany, the company is considered the global market of a whole subcontinent. At the time, when these vehicles leader in outsourcing solutions for so-called Unit Load have been developed, great minds have been behind Devices (ULD) management operating at more than 450 them. They had a vision for which sometimes have been airports around the world. offended. But at the end, they had the right “There was something exciting about it (air cargo) making entrepreneurial feeling and did make a significant impact me stick to it. Hence, it was just logical to stay in the on development. industry,” Hernig told Air Cargo Update DUMMY in an email We heard you're a huge aviation enthusiast. How do interview. you satisfy this? I am not flying planes, but I have to admit Hernig keeps a busy schedule all-year-round that also that I am frequently on flight radar. I read a lot about involves a lot of traveling across the world. “Working in a small but global company like Jettainer is always majorly driven by proactively reacting to customer wishes and market developments. Hence, the daily job routine is always a balance of managing the new versus driving structural projects forward. And my job demands a lot of traveling in order to have my ear on the pulse of our customers,” the head of Jettainer said. Though his job extends globally with Jettainer's reach to hundreds of airports, Hernig still finds time to relax with his most prized possessions: His family of five, his sports, his motorbike and his old Citroen. How do you handle stress in a very competitive industry? I have a fantastic family, I go running almost daily – this is relaxing and at the same time the source of creativity. And I like to ride my motorbike. Additionally, we travel a lot as a family. This keeps our minds open and it is the best education for kids to be open for other cultures. This is particularly important in these times, where unilateralism is threatening to replace amicable forms of cooperation of the human race. What is it about vintage cars and motorcycles that you like? Do you collect them? Well, I personally drive a Citroen DS from 1973 and my wife a 2CV. Both cars have been revolutionary. The DS has been an incredible step forward in technology at the time and the 2CV has given affordable mobility to the masses. Hence both cars have dramatically changed human mobility. Hence, I believe it's Carsten Hernig Managing Director, Jettainer GmbH aviation and sometimes, I do spent hours with my son at the runway of some airports to spot planes. Further, I do fly a lot as a passenger for business and private travel, and it has never become a commodity to me. Every time the plane accelerates on the runway, I do feel thrilled – at the end there is a lot of complexity behind every flight, be it in terms of technology, commercial network planning, loading, etc. Many hands have to work together in sync to make a flight happen. This is fascinating. And so is the fact that we as humans would not be flying, had there not been some enthusiasts who started to jump from hills with simple gliders. Everyone laughed at them and considered them idiots. But look where we are: It requires people with a vision who think out of the box to make things happen! If you were given the chance to meet someone, who would it be and why? I am happy meeting the people who are crossing my way. My first boss told me: “You have to be interested in human beings behind name” – this is what counts, and which makes every person interesting. Please share some philosophies that helped you sail through life. First: I always give trust a chance over skepticism. On a base line, the only connecting factor between all people is the fact, that we are humans. If you take this as a basis for cooperation, it should bring us forward. Second: Doing whatever you do, even if sometimes it's totally stupid and useless, is much easier, if it is done with passion. Third: When we lived in India, someone told me: “At the end everything will be good and if it is not good – it is not the end yet”
SITAONAIR's aircraft Internet of Things takes off with pioneering AirBridgeCargo and CargoLogicAir project GLOBAL NEWS LONDON: SITAONAIR's trademark 'open platforms' approach is turning the aircraft Internet of Things (IoT) concept into a reality by joining forces with two pioneering cargo carriers AirBridgeCargo Airlines (ABC) and CargoLogicAir (CLA) at the 20<strong>18</strong> Farnborough Air Show in July. By applying its open platforms approach to delivering bespoke IoT capabilities onboard, SITAONAIR will securely integrate diverse aircraft avionics – encompassing sensors, connectivity, hardware, applications and more – heightening the potential of the connected aircraft. Through a demo, SITAONAIR's IoT platform enabled two strategic partners, ABC and CLA, to monitor, in real-time, the journey of sensitive pharmaceutical cargo inflight. SITAONAIR's specific IoT solution for AirBridgeCargo and CargoLogicAir works by collecting IoT data provided by OnAsset Intelligence, its demo par tner and cargo-monitoring specialist, during the course of a flight. This OnAsset Intelligence data is then fed through SITAONAIR's onboard IoT edge gateway. The data can then be sent, securely, to its ground data management and dispatch platform, built to monitor the inflight status of carriers' goods. Currently, there are no other solutions on the market that provide inflight cargo sensing and freight condition visibility, as perishable and temperature-sensitive goods can only be monitored on the ground. SITAONAIR's collaboration with AirBridgeCargo and CargoLogicAir therefore represents a shift in technological intelligence, enabling actions or decisions to be made inflight to help optimize performance. “As one of the world's leading cargo airlines, digital pharma is a priority innovation focus for us. With genuine Internet of Things capabilities, enabled for us onboard by SITAONAIR, our digital pharma service is born, ensuring we can provide the best transportation conditions inflight for customers' invaluable cargo,” said Sergey Lazarev, General Director of AirBridgeCargo. David Kerr, CEO of CargoLogicAir, noted: “Customers in the air cargo industry are aiming at getting a better digital experience. With SITAONAIR we will be able to move towards the establishment of a holistic digital environment for our customers.”
