Greg Jellinek, M.D., is a candidate for the Truckee Tahoe Airport Board. I strongly support his candidacy for this position.

I have known Greg as a fellow pilot and medical professional for more than 20 years. In the last few years has become a full-time resident. He has always maintained a very active presence in the community both as a pilot as well as a very well-respected plastic surgeon.

I have always found Greg to be very well-informed and very levelheaded. He has actively followed the development of the airport over a very lengthy period of time and I am certain that he would make a substantial contribution to its ongoing success as a member of the airport district board.

I have the utmost confidence and respect in his ability to look at issues from a broad perspective and take into account all the stakeholders needs on any given issue. I have seen him do this on many an occasion as a active member of our medical staff at Tahoe Forest Hospital.

I know he would take that same thorough and balanced approach to his position on the airport board. I strongly endorse his position and hope that others will see him in the same light.

Tom Specht, M.D.
