TAC Air recently made changes to its leadership team in Fort Smith. Eight-year veteran of TAC Air, Christina Lang, will now lead the company’s St Louis fixed base operation as general manager (GM) at Spirit of St Louis Airport in Chesterfield, Missouri after serving as GM at the Fort Smith fixed base operation (FBO) for the past two years. Allison Graham has been tapped to lead TAC Air’s FBO in Fort Smith, as general manager.
TAC Air is an aviation ground services company providing service available via fixed base operations with more than 700 associates in its network of operations spanning 16 FBO locations across the United States. TAC Air is a division of TAC – The Arnold Companies, a Texas-based aviation services and energy marketing company.
“Fort Smith was an amazing location to hone my general manager skills,” said Lang. “FSM does a bit of everything including airline support, military support services, general aviation ground services and air charter ground support. I know I will be able to take what I learned at FSM and apply it to SUS, one of the largest GA-only airports in the Midwest.”
Lang relocated to Fort Smith from Dallas, where she served three years in a system-wide role for TAC Air as manager of Administrative Services. After studing Aeronautical Science at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Prescott, Ariz., she completed her commercial pilot certificate and worked as a corporate pilot flying mining executives in Arizona and New Mexico.
Replacing Lang, is 31-year veteran of TAC Air, Allison Graham, who has progressively served as ramp hostess, CSR, aircraft maintenance admin and most recently, as the customer service manager, a position she has held for the last 22 years.
“I am very excited to take on the role of general manager at TAC Air – FSM,” Graham said. “I look forward to continuing our team’s ‘SERVICE WITH NO CEILING’ approach to business and welcoming new customers to the FSM airport. New and exciting opportunities are unfolding at the airport in the near future and I am thrilled to be a part of and lead the team through them.
“Congratulations to Christina on her new role,” Graham added. “I am ready to step in and continue the legacy of leadership Ft Smith has had for so long from Carol McNally to Christina Lang.”
Chief Operating Officer of TAC Air, Joe Gibney said, “These promotions are a testament to the importance we put on personal development at TAC Air and its impact within our system. Recognizing individuals who are committed to building the organization actively contributes to the growth the company has seen.”
