Air Transport Services Group, Inc. (ATSG) has announced the appointment of Trisha Frank to the role of vice president of government programmes. This expands her role, as she also is the leader of government programmes at Omni Air International, a wholly owned airline subsidiary of ATSG.

“ATSG has always been committed to providing the best possible service to U.S. government agencies,” said Rich Corrado, president and chief executive officer of ATSG. “Trisha’s work at Omni has substantially strengthened our relationships with government customers. Extending Trisha’s in-depth knowledge and leadership to the corporate level will ensure that our service commitment never wavers as we continue to grow this important facet of our business.”

Frank joined Omni in 1995 and was promoted to director of marketing in 1997, overseeing the airline’s charter sales and Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) contract with the U.S. Department of Defence. She continues to be vice president of government programmes at Omni. In 2011, she became the team lead for the Patriot Team, which comprises nine commercial airlines committed to augment the military’s own air transport capabilities. She will continue to focus on this important management responsibility. She also serves as the public affairs coordinator for the Airlift/Tanker Association.
