Dear Mr. Boyer,
Ěrs. Youli Kalafati, President of AOPA Hellas, asked me to confirm the interest of Association of Greek Tourist Enterprises(SETE)Greece to host the IAOPA World Assembly in 2008.
AOPA Hellas is a valuable member of SETE and it's doing a great job to promote the interest of general aviation and tourism in our country.
Taking under consideration the success of Olympic Games of 2004 as well as the successful organization of several world conferences, we would like to encourage our members to organize World Assemblies of their fields.
It's sure that by accepting organizing the IAOPA World Assembly 2008 in Athens, it will be helpful of improving the profile of AOPA Hellas and it would be a great help to their efforts for promoting the general aviation. We are also sure that all of your members will be satisfied by the quality of organization and the hospitality Greece can offer.
By our side, SETE will help and facilitate for the success of your General Assembly.
Kind Regards
Stavros Andreadis George Vernicos President SETE General Secretary SETE

Dear Phil,
It has been a while since we met in Athens where your presence, support and advice really boosted our resolve to continue our own efforts in promoting General Aviation. I was very pleased to hear from our mutual good friend Yiouli Kalafati that Greece is a candidate country for hosting the IAOPA World Assembly in 2008.
Aegean Airlines cannot be far away from such an event, as we are a direct result of the determination and creativity that exists within General Aviation. If Greece is finally selected, I am certain that the IAOPA Conference will constitute a huge boost of all the excellent efforts of AOPA Greece and Yiouli Kalafati personally, not only towards the public, but also towards the Greek authorities involved. I am also certain that the environment and hospitality that is standard in Greece will help in everyone having a great time.
It goes without saying that Aegean Airlines will be there to help and assist in any way IAOPA and AOPA Greece consider appropriate.
Kindest personal regards,
Antonis Simidgalas
Chief Operating Officer
Aegean Airlines S.A.

Dear Mr. Boyer, I was very pleased to learn from my good friend, AOPA Hellas President Mrs. Youli Kalafati of our country's candidacy for hosting the IAOPA World Assembly in 2008.
Air BP in Greece and myself have been working closely with AOPA Hellas to promote GA in Greece, and we believe that if this is indeed approved by IAOPA, it would represent a major step forward in raising the profile of GA with the Greek Authorities and the public. Obviously IAOPA members would also greatly enjoy the traditional Greek hospitality and sightseeing opportunities throughout Greece.
Air BP being the major supplier of Avgas and Jet in all the airports in Greece will certainly wish to support and facilitate such an event in whatever appropriate way may be agreed.
