"We need to have more than one candidate (for the FBO)," said Wor rall, Leon Huffman, ex-officio mem ber of the authority, said that find ing someone to provide flight train ing and fuel services would be fairly easy.

Dorsett suggested the air port be named Sam Nunn Airport. However, no decision was made on the name of the airport.
