Managers Minute — December 2018
Last month, we posted a story about our operations here at SUN — notably, our one-lane TSA checkpoint and hybrid TSA PreCheck. In that story, I mentioned our continued efforts to make improvements to the screening process in light of our increased flights and passenger demand. Here at SUN, we experience a higher-than-your-average airport percentage […]
November Manager’s Minute: An update from Chris Pomeroy
It’s official. As of November 1st, our project is substantially complete. We now have a fully operational fourth air carrier parking spot and reconfigured parking lot. Only minor landscaping in front of the new retaining wall next spring and some signage improvements based on user feedback, remain. Not only did we complete the project a […]
October Managers Minute
Summer went by fast. And if you traveled through SUN, you’ll know it was especially busy at the airport. Between ongoing construction (parking lot and expanded air carrier parking apron), one of our busiest annual fly-in events, and an overall busy flight schedule, there was never a dull moment. Overall, we had a safe and successful summer […]
August Manager’s Minute: An update from Chris Pomeroy
Summer is going by fast… Our annual fly-in event has come and gone. Hard to believe this was my third event already. I will never forget my very first official day on the job as the new airport manager in 2016 – the first day of this event. It was a great learning experience. This […]

April Managers Minute — A Note from Chris Pomeroy
Our 2017/2018 winter season air service schedule drew to a close last Monday. While early season snow was hard to find, overall, we ended the winter season with strong activity. Over the course of the winter, especially during the peak demand times around Christmas, New Year’s, and President’s Day weekend, our air carriers experienced some […]
December Edition: Mangers Minute
The holiday season always seems bring about a period of reflection for me and I know many others. So, I wanted to take a minute to reflect on the past year at the airport. First, I cannot believe how fast this past year flew by … it seems like only yesterday my wife and I […]
Manager’s Minute: An update from Chris Pomeroy
The holidays are just around the corner, and that means coveted time with family and friends. It also may mean dealing with not-so-much-coveted holiday travel. With Thanksgiving just two weeks away, many of us have already made our holiday travel plans, or soon will. For some, that includes air travel into or out of SUN. […]
Manager’s Minute — August Edition
Manager’s Minute An update from Chris Pomeroy Hard to believe we have almost reached the official end of summer with the Labor Day holiday upon us. As I previously discussed, it has been a busy summer at the airport. The eclipse event has come and gone. I promise I won’t say anything else about […]
