O&M's Sarah Person, KTRK's Newest ACE!

Jan 01, 2019

Sarah earned her American Association of Airport Executives "Airport Certified Employee" (ACE) in Airfield Operations. After several months of self study, Ms. Person attended a week long review course at San Francisco International Airport (SFO). The course culminated with a three hour - 100 question multiple choice exam.

Sarah says that the program has improved her understanding of Part 139 certificated airport operational specifications. This in-depth knowledge of airfield standards will be of great value in her daily working environment and staff supervision.

Ms. Person has been living and working in the Truckee area for the last 14 years and has been with the Airport District since 2014. Originally from Midland, Michigan, it was the ski industry that brought her to the Tahoe area. Sarah is very pleased with her subsequent career move from mountain operations to the aviation industry.

Be sure and say hi to Sarah the next time you see her at the airport. You may even be lucky enough to meet "Luna", her new Border Collie puppy!

Sarah is a valued employee at KTRK and we are all very proud of her ACE accreditation achievement. Go Sarah! (Photo by: James Shues)
