Smith<\/a> announced today that longtime aviation executive Bill Noe, for whom Marshall\u2019s flight school is named, has been named Chief\u00a0Aviation Officer for the Division of Aviation at the university.<\/p>\n<p>Noe, an accomplished pilot, and former President and Chief Operations Officer for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.netjets.com\/en-us\/\">NetJets,<\/a> a global private jet company, has served as a trusted advisor to Marshall\u2019s aviation program since its conception in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Smith said the vision for the chief aviation officer is to lead both the Bill Noe Flight School, a four-year baccalaureate program, and the aviation maintenance technology program, an 18-month degree, opening this fall in partnership with Mountwest Community and Technical College.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI could not be more excited for Bill to take on this new leadership position,\u201d Smith said. \u201cHe is a forward-focused thinker and perfect for a transformational role that hinges on the rare combination of an innovative commercial opportunity combined with an academic foundation. Bill is committed to the success of not only this program, but Marshall University as a whole.\u00a0 We are lucky to have him on board.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Noe, currently a Marshall board of governors member, will step down from the position to take on the aviation leadership responsibilities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy career in aviation began right here in Huntington, almost forty years ago,\u201d Noe said. \u201cIt has taken me all over the world many times over and now has landed me back here, right where it all started.
