DENTON MUNICIPAL AIRPORT
Strengthening North Texas’s aviation presence. Quentin Hix wouldn’t change his recently acquired job for anything—and it has nothing to do with the economy’s job-lost situation either. He’s gone from managing a city, Copper Canyon in Denton County, where he led administration of all the city services and operating departments, to managing the rapidly expanding Denton Municipal Airport (DTO) in Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas, Metroplex. And in this new position, Hix gladly boasts that he works alongside a motivated team that’s eager to attract an even larger aviation community to its area.
