Steve Evans’ success is attributed to observing the changes in technology over time in the commercial and private aircraft industry. He joined Lane Aviation in 1979 in the line service department and held several supervisory roles until becoming the Operations Manager in 1998 with responsibility for line service, airline fueling, deicing, fuel farm and terminal charters. He became V.P. of Operations and now serves as the president of Lane Aviation.
- Lane Aviation operated from Hangar 1 East until moving to the present location.
The hangar, diagonal from the original terminal, has a venerable history. It was used to support trans-continental flights by TAT Airline. East or Westbound travelers crossed 5th Avenue from the railroad platform to the Terminal building and boarded daylight flights on their way to the coasts.
