With mixed feelings, we bid farewell to Bob Woods, Deputy Director of Texas Department of Transportation Aviation Division on June 30, 2000. Although we hate to see him go, as he has been an integral part of our commitment to statewide aviation during the past seven years, at the same time I am pleased that my home state, Tennessee, has chosen Bob as their new State Aviation Director. Bob is an outstanding individual who will lead Tennessee aviation in an exemplary manner.
Prior to joining TxDOT, Bob served our country as an Air Force pilot rising to the rank of Brigadier General. He flew many different types of aircraft including the C 141 and the C 5A. We wish Bob and his wife, Wanda, the best in their relocation to Tennessee.
