Spokane Airport Board selects Lincoln, NE airport director as new CEO
Aug. 19—The Spokane Airport Board on Monday voted to select a new CEO to oversee Spokane International Airport and Felts Field. The board selected David Haring, who had been serving as the executive director of the Lincoln Airport Authority in Lincoln, Nebraska. Haring would replace Larry Krauter, who served as the CEO of Spokane Airports since 2011. Krauter announced last year that he was leaving for the same role overseeing the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport, located across the Ohio River from Cincinnati in Hebron, Kentucky. According to a news release, Haring is a 20-year veteran of the airport industry. In his biography for the Lincoln Airport Authority, Haring is a private pilot who is from Pennsylvania and is an accredited airport executive. He graduated from the University of North Dakota. Prior to his appointment in 2014 as executive director of the Lincoln Airport Authority, Haring held a variety of positions at the Cheyenne Regional Airport in Cheyenne, Wyoming. There he served as its director of aviation from 2007 to 2014, according to the website. In Spokane, the airport is jointly owned by the city of Spokane and Spokane County. That means Haring's appointment must be approved by elected leaders from both bodies. He would replace Krauter, who added several nonstop routes from Spokane, started several terminal upgrades, added more parking and built a 1-mile rail line connecting the existing Geiger Spur line to the airport property. The Terminal Renovation and Expansion Project — called TREX — added a centralized security checkpoint, expanded baggage claim area and more gates to improve passenger flow at the airport. Haring did not immediately respond Monday to an email seeking comment. Solve the daily Crossword

Ideal Systems Debuts "Tabatha" AI-Powered Newsroom Service at IBC2025
New service includes native integration of Comcast Technology Solutions' VideoAI™ and will be demonstrated with CTS at IBC2025 in Hall #5, in stand 5.C80 SINGAPORE, SG / / August 19, 2025 / Ideal Systems announced today it will be previewing "Tabatha," an integrated newsroom AI platform with native integration of Comcast Technology Solutions' (CTS) VideoAI™ at IBC2025 in Amsterdam. Tabatha is optimised and tailored for using AI in modern TV newsroom productions and is the latest module for Ideal Systems "Alice" cloud integration platform. Tabatha's native integration with VideoAI from CTS aims to dramatically increase newsroom productivity by reducing content search times and increasing search accuracy. It will enable users to search for any highlight without requiring content specific training and significantly simplify highlights workflows across all news and sports genres. Born out of the need for deep integration with both legacy broadcast systems and new media content management systems, Tabatha provides an enterprise integration layer for launching new AI assisted workflows to assist with the efficient creation of news content in legacy newsroom environments with minimal integration impact. Tabatha also allows for the management and control of multiple AIs within the same workflows, even if they are from different AI providers, with different billing models and full API level audits of all actions. "For news organizations, Tabatha serves as a seamless extension layer that enhances existing newsroom systems, archives, and editing workflows with advanced AI-driven media analysis, without altering the core properties of legacy infrastructure, minimizing the risk of introducing AI into operations," said Fintan Mc Kiernan, CEO at Ideal Systems SEA. "We're very proud to have VideoAI from Comcast Technology Solutions powering our efforts and to showcase our work together at IBC2025. Tabatha can also serve as a common platform enabling organizations to leverage AI insights across multiple detectors and billing models, all with full API-level auditing." While Tabatha can integrate with many AIs depending on customer requirements, it will launch with a native integration with VideoAI from CTS. Like Tabatha, VideoAI comes from a proven broadcast background having been developed and used by some of the largest broadcast, media and entertainment companies in the world. Based on years of real-word data training and refinements, VideoAI has won numerous accolades including a Technology & Engineering Emmy® Award, NAB Product of the Year Award, and numerous others. Using VideoAI, Tabatha allows for advanced functionality such as curation of content with accurate topic segmentation and a unique per segment synopsis. Deep search of video content for visual objects, celebrities, and semantic queries are all supported. Tabatha can generate advertising tags and standardised asset metadata sets. It can also automatically identify and select key highlights for distribution to social media platforms and apps or export them via Edit Decision Lists (EDLs) for use in editing platforms like Adobe Premiere, GV EDIUS, and others. Ideal Systems, powered by CTS VIdeoAI, is delivering a future-ready solution that modernizes newsroom operations through advanced automation, AI, and deep media intelligence. Ideal Systems will be demonstrating their integrated solution with CTS at IBC Hall #5, in stand 5.C80 and are now open to taking bookings. Contact AI@ for more information.
