Calhoun Air Center Welcomes New FBO Manager

Port Lavaca, Texas – Calhoun Air Center (CAC) would like to welcome our new Fixed Base Operator (FBO) Manager, Steven Plunkett. He and his wife, Breanna have a 16-month-old daughter named Emma. Originally from Spring, TX, he earned his commercial multi-engine pilot certificate from Delta Connection Academy, Houston in May, 2009. Steven graduated from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in May 2010 with a Bachelor of Science in Professional Aeronautics and a minor in management.

He has been interested in aviation since he was eight-years-old which stemmed from a number of pilots being in his family. He has a great-uncle and cousin who both flew for the USMC, an uncle who is a corporate pilot, and his grandfather was a private pilot. Being exposed to aviation early on was key to his passion for aviation today; he can directly relate to the kids that tour the airport and experience it for the first time. “I feel it is important for those kids who look up whenever they hear a jet fly over to know that they really can pilot one of those aircraft some day.” said Steven. He thinks many people would be surprised at how accessible aviation is and that is one of the most important messages he would like to convey to the community.

He has big dreams for the airfield and would love to see more expansion, additional hangar space, and an increase in business traffic through the airport. As for the very near future, Steven plans to expand the flight school by increasing the number of students, and subsequently instructors. Aircraft is high on his priority list.

As a graduate of the United States Marine Corps’ Officer Candidate School, he brings an element of leadership beyond what would be expected from having his degree alone. There he learned skills to enhance his leadership capabilities; it taught him to be calm under pressure and lead under high stress situations. It is an accomplishment that he is very proud of.

We here at CAC look forward to the future with Steven’s direction and knowledge of aviation. We are currently expanding our airport facility and encourage anyone interested to meet with Steven and tour our local airport. For more information call 361-552-1228 or email fly@calhounaircenter.com.
