About Ken Nelson
As a prior Marine Corps fighter pilot I bring the same concept of professionalism and fanatical attention to detail to the airline and space industry. I have a comprehensive background in tactical and transport aviation, space operations, training/development, program management, and personnel management. Recent experience derived from conducting domestic and global operations with joint and coalition military partners at the Combined Space Operations Center, Space Force, Delta 5, and with MARFORSPACE at SPACECOM HQ, Colorado Springs, in addition to daily domestic and international flying with American Airlines. Career supported by a Bachelor’s in Science Degree in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Southern California.
