Father Kenneth Doyle, Chairperman of the Airport’s Board explained, “The Board and I are extremely pleased that someone of the leadership depth and experience of Phil Calderone will be taking the reins of our thriving airport from our very effective current CEO John O’Donnell. We anticipate a seamless transition, especially because Phil has such a depth of knowledge of the Capital District, given his extended service, first as Deputy Mayor of Albany for 17 years and his recent position as Deputy Albany County Executive and Counsel.”
