Chief, Performance & Flying Qualities Flight B
Air Force Flight Test Center, Edwards AFB, CA
I am currently at Edwards AFB getting paid to be (notice I didn't say "working as") the chief of a "Flight" of engineers, all of whom conduct performance & flying qualities tests for the USAF on aircraft such as the Global Hawk, F-16, F-35, T-38, and assorted bombers and cargo aircraft. I came to Edwards immediately following graduation in 1985, and have loved being here ever since I arrived. Programs I have been assigned to during my career include the F-16, B-2, F-15, and the F-35; in late 2008 I was finally yanked off the flight line and now get to oversee the activities of some of the brightest engineers I have ever been privileged to know. My wife, Connie (UW BS in Nursing, '85) and I have 4 kids; as of Oct 09, our 3 boys are in college and our daughter is finishing middle school. Life is great; I even get to come to work at Edwards' "Husky Corner", where I am surrounded by UW alums Fred Webster and Frank Brown.
Alek Komarnitsky
Homepage
BS, 1984
Following graduation, Alek spent 4 years as an Air Force Officer doing weapons research ("it blowed up real good"), the next 6 years a Network/Systems Manager for two Boulder, Colorado software start-ups where he built the computing infrastructures from scratch. He then moved over to the Fortune 100 world where he has been a "Chief Technologist" for the last decade providing IT support for (literally) rocket scientists. Along the way, he picked up a MBA (heaven forbid!) from CU-Boulder. He enjoys living in Boulder, Colorado with his lovely wife Wendy and two sons Dirk & Kyle ... plus bazillions of Christmas lights which provided his 15 minutes of world-wide fame. Way more than you want to know can be found at my homepage.
