Mercury Air Cargo Names Former UPS Executive As New Chief Operating
Officer LOS ANGELES, Dec. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Mercury Air
Group President & CEO Joseph A. Czyzyk announced today that the
Company has named Paul J. Martins, a former senior executive with
United Parcel Service Inc. (UPS), as Chief Operating Officer of its
wholly owned subsidiary Mercury Air Cargo Inc. replacing Mark J.
Coleman. Martins brings nearly 20 years of experience in the air
freight industry to Mercury Air Cargo. After spending several years
as General Manager for Buffalo Airways, Martins joined UPS in 1988.
During his tenure at UPS, Martins served in a number of senior
management positions within UPS' air cargo and charter operations
-- making him uniquely qualified for his new role with Mercury Air
Cargo. "Clearly, attracting someone of Paul's caliber sends a
strong message that Mercury Air Cargo's best days are ahead. I have
known Paul for the past 18 years and I am pleased to bring his
passion, experience and expertise to the Mercury team," said
Czyzyk. From 1993 to 1997 Martins served as International Sales and
Marketing Manager for UPS Air Cargo Service and directed the
Company's expansion of its service in Europe, Asia and The
Americas. During this same period, he also managed the Company's
worldwide Aircraft Charter Division. In 1997 Martins was named
Director of UPS Air Charter Service, which included the UPS
Passenger Airline that served 20 cities in North and Central
America until August 2001. For the last three years Martins has
served as Director of UPS Air Cargo, the Company's heavy freight
division. "Mercury Air Cargo has a very strong reputation in
marketing, sales and operational expertise for airlines and freight
forwarders. I am very excited by this opportunity and I look
forward to helping grow Mercury Air Cargo as we assist forwarders
and airlines in meeting their air cargo needs worldwide," said
Martins. With locations in the U.S., Canada and Mexico and many
agents worldwide, Mercury Air Cargo is positioned to further its
reach into the air cargo market. Add to this cargo handling
capability at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), Atlanta,
Toronto and Montreal, Mercury is strategically situated to provide
tactical cargo sales and logistics services to its customers
worldwide. Martins is a graduate of the New England Conservatory in
Boston. He is the former Vice Chairman of Special Olympics in the
State of Kentucky. Martins and his wife will be relocating to Los
Angeles from Louisville, Kentucky later this month. About Mercury
