Gregory Polek has spent his entire career in aviation journalism with AIN, starting as a proofreader and assistant to then-managing editor Mary Mahoney in 1995 after serving an internship with&nbsp;New Jersey Monthly&nbsp;magazine and completing his B.A. degree in English/Writing at New Jersey’s William Paterson College. By 1997 Polek accepted a position as an associate editor, covering the regional airline beat for&nbsp;Aviation International News&nbsp;in place of retiring industry veteran Don Anderson. The assignment took Polek across North America and Europe to profile regional airlines varying in size and mission from the likes of floatplane operators Kenmore Air and Chalk’s Ocean Airways to regional jet operators such as SkyWest and American Eagle. Today, in his dual role as Air Transport Editor and International Airshow Editor, Polek writes, edits, and manages AIN’s commercial aviation content while overseeing each of the company’s daily international air show publications in Paris, Farnborough, Singapore, and Dubai. Most recently Polek has assumed oversight of daily coverage of the Helicopter Association International’s annual Heli-Expo convention.

Bombardier Aerospace last month named Michele (Mike) Arcamone president of Bombardier Commercial Aircraft, effective Feb. 1, 2012. Arcamone succeeds Gary Scott, who retired on Oct. 1, 2011. 
Bombardier president and COO Guy Hachey served as interim president of Bombardier Commercial Aircraft following Scott’s retirement. “Mike comes to us with a brilliant track record throughout his 30-year career in the automotive industry,” said Hachey. “He brings a unique background of international experience to our team.” 
A native of Montreal, Arcamone most recently held the position of president and CEO of GM Korea, based in Seoul. Arcamone joined General Motors in 1980. In recruiting Arcamone, Bombardier emphasized his “global perspective” and particularly his experience in Asia, where the company feels it needs to project a stronger presence.
