“I am honored to be selected by my peers for a leadership position within NASAO,” said Wanner. “I look forward to working with the organization and our aviation leaders throughout the country to further enhance, promote, and develop all facets of aviation.”

Anthony McCloskey, Chair of NASAO and Director of the Bureau of Aviation, Multimodal Transportation for the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, emphatically stated, “Kyle will have an immediate impact to the Executive Board for NASAO as Secretary.
