GM Kevin Smith Leaving KTRK

Apr 06, 2022

Recently my family and I made the decision to move on to a new aviation career opportunity.  This was a very difficult decision to make and came after much reflection and thought.  It has been an absolute pleasure and honor for the past 12 years serving the Board of Directors, District Staff, and our wonderful community as General Manager of the District.  I want to thank each member of the Board of Directors for their friendship and support they have extended to me as well as my family during my tenure as General Manager.  I appreciate their faith and confidence allowing me to serve in this capacity.  My tenure as General Manger will end on May 6th

I also want to express my deep appreciation to our wonderful TTAD Staff team which I have had the privilege of working with.  I am very proud of this team, and know the Airport is in very good hands and set up for future success.  I am appreciative of their trust and support over these past 12 years. 

I have very much enjoyed my time being a part of this wonderful airport, community, and serving the constituents of the District.  After my Departure on May 6th, we will be staying in the area and hope to continue these friendships.

Thank you again! 

Kevin Smith, General Manager, AAE
